What are the hazards of primary nephrotic syndrome?

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've been a bit swollen all over. I feel weak all the time. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. Could you please tell me about the dangers of primary nephrotic syndrome?

Doctor's answer:

Nephrotic syndrome and kidney deficiency are not the same concept. This is primarily because it is a disease caused by various factors, including external infections or abnormalities in the immune system. However, this condition has many complications, including infections or hypoalbuminemia. Additionally, it may lead to hypercoagulable states or kidney dysfunction. Therefore, we recommend early detection and prompt examination, and if necessary, a kidney biopsy for pathological examination.
