Patient's question:
The baby has been particularly naughty today, constantly crying, especially at night when the crying becomes even more severe. No matter how we try to comfort him, it doesn't help, and it's keeping us awake. A friend, seeing all these symptoms, told me it might be possible that the baby has nephrotic syndrome in children. What are the symptoms of nephrotic syndrome in children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are several reasons that can cause a baby to cry, and it's not necessarily due to kidney disease. These reasons may include hunger, excessive daytime deep sleep leading to reluctance to nap at night, colds and fever, or poor digestion and abdominal discomfort. Symptoms of pediatric kidney disease include generalized edema, lethargy, cloudy urine (proteinuria), and increased urine output. If you're still not at ease, you can take your child to the pediatric department of a hospital for a follow-up checkup.
