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

Patient's question:

Recovery period from allergic purpura, medication has been stopped, weekly urine tests are conducted. The last test was done over two weeks ago, and I will go for another test tomorrow. Recently, I have been experiencing frequent daytime urination, sometimes urinating twice in an hour, but no frequency at night. I urinate once in the morning.

Doctor's answer:

If you want to directly and carefully check how the kidneys receive interference, you can do a B (ultrasound) or retrograde urography. Urinalysis mainly checks for red blood cells, white blood cells, casts, etc., and it can also assess how kidney function is affected. Urinalysis can provide a preliminary screening for 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...
