Patient's question:
Recently, my husband had a thorough health check-up at his workplace and was found to have mild nephritis. However, he is a person who avoids trouble, and since he currently has no symptoms, he doesn't want to seek treatment. Can mild nephritis be cured?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, nephritis cannot heal on its own because it is caused by kidney inflammation and often presents with symptoms such as frequent urination. If left untreated in mild cases of nephritis, it may progress into chronic nephritis, which is even more difficult to treat. In terms of treating nephritis, the best approach is to combine traditional Chinese and Western medicine, as this can better control and treat the condition.
