Question

My father was diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome during his hospital check-up, but family members are not very familiar with this condition. What does nephrotic syndrome mean?

Answer

Nephrotic syndrome is a condition primarily treated with hormones and immunosuppressants. It is recommended to undergo a check-up in the urology department of a regular public hospital for an accurate diagnosis and to consider surgical treatment before the age of school entry. After treatment, the child will improve and it will not cause any adverse effects. Here are some suggestions regarding ‘hypospadias,’ hoping they will be helpful to you. Wishing you health!
