Question
A girl experienced blood in her urine during urination. After examination, she was informed that her hematuria index was low, and it returned to normal after a week of follow-up. The parents inquired about what medication should be given regularly and how to pay attention to their diet?
Answer
The causes of children’s hematuria are diverse, and they can be divided into glomerular and non-glomerular hematuria. Primary glomerulonephritis is one of the common causes of hematuria. It could be idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and it is recommended to observe and encourage the consumption of peanuts to strengthen the body and prevent colds. At the same time, it is suggested to have regular blood tests and, if necessary, bone marrow cell examination for diagnosis. In terms of diet, avoid stimulating food, maintain a balanced diet, and increase the intake of vitamin C-rich foods to promote wound healing. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital for detailed examination and treatment.
