Patient's question:
I am 20 years old, male, what disease do I have? Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be glomerulonephritis. Glomerulonephritis is a non-suppurative inflammatory lesion of both kidneys. Due to damage to the glomeruli, symptoms such as edema, hypertension, and proteinuria may occur, making it the most common type of kidney disease. There are many types of nephritis, including acute nephritis, chronic nephritis, pyelonephritis, occult nephritis, allergic purpura nephritis, and lupus nephritis. It is recommended to first perform a kidney biopsy for diagnosis and then treat according to the symptoms.
