What tests should be checked for frequent urination to rule out kidney problems?

Patient's question:

In the recovery period of allergic purpura, the medication has been discontinued. Urinalysis is checked weekly. The last check was more than half a month ago, and I will go for another check tomorrow. Recently, there has been frequent urination during the day, sometimes urinating twice in an hour, but there is no frequent urination at night. There is one urination in the morning.

Doctor's answer:

If you want to directly and carefully check how the kidneys receive interference, you can do a B or a retrograde urography examination. Urinalysis mainly checks for red blood cells, white blood cells, casts, etc., and it can also check how kidney function is affected. Urinalysis can provide a preliminary screening for potential kidney damage. If you want a more direct examination, you can use B and retrograde urography.
Doctor's inquiry: Feel free to ask me anything you don't understand. Wishing you all the best...
