My brother was diagnosed with microscopic inflammation of this nephrotic syndrome at the beginning of this year. His legs and scrotum have already swollen, and I am very worried.

In addition to actively using corticosteroids and other medications to implement anti-inflammatory rescue, patients should also follow a low-protein diet.The treatment for minimal inflammatory glomerulonephritis is primarily based on medication.
