Question
After last year’s upper respiratory infection, a girl was found to have intermittent normal and abnormal hematuria in urine tests, and she inquired about the related diseases and medical advice.
Answer
Acute glomerulonephritis may be the cause of hematuria, usually accompanied by symptoms such as proteinuria, edema, hypertension, and decreased glomerular filtration rate. Treatment mainly focuses on symptomatic therapy, including controlling edema and blood pressure, as well as closely monitoring and protecting kidney function. Generally, with appropriate treatment and rest, most cases can recover naturally.
