Question
“Is Nephrotic Syndrome Nephritis?”
Answer
“Nephrotic Syndrome primarily occurs in the glomeruli of the kidneys, often accompanied by symptoms such as large amounts of proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, edema, and hyperlipidemia. It is usually caused by nephritis, but further tests are needed to determine whether it is primary or secondary. Patients should strictly follow their doctor’s instructions, use antibiotics to prevent infection, and avoid using medications that may increase kidney toxicity, as well as factors such as colds that may worsen the condition.”
