Membranous Glomerulonephritis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Membranous glomerulonephritis is a kidney disease in which the glomerulus, the structure responsible for filtering the blood, is damaged due to the deposit of substances in its membrane. This causes protein to be lost through the urine.
Possible manifestations: swelling in the legs, feet or eyelids, foamy urine, weight gain from fluid retention and tiredness.
When is it worth having it checked? If persistent swelling appears or the urine is noticed to be very foamy, an evaluation is advisable to study kidney function.
Which specialist treats it? The nephrologist, or the pediatric nephrologist in the case of children, is the one who studies this condition, with the support of the internist in general care. If you notice these signs, getting in touch with one of these professionals allows the cause to be identified and proper follow-up to be given.
