Question
What could be the possible diseases when a child’s urine test shows ‘hidden +1 blood’?
Answer
The presence of ‘hidden +1 blood’ in a child’s urine test may be due to kidney diseases. It is recommended to undergo ultrasound, routine urine tests, and kidney function tests, and may require symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication, antibiotics, hormones, antihistamines, vitamins, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Daily diet should be light and low in sodium, avoiding spicy and alcoholic irritant foods. If a kidney disease is diagnosed, immediate medical treatment should be sought, and attention should be paid to hygiene habits and reasonable diet, avoiding irritant foods.
