Hereditary Nephritis
It is advisable to seek care when blood appears in the urine repeatedly or there is a family history of kidney disease, since it could be hereditary nephritis, a group of genetically transmitted kidney disorders that affect the filters responsible for cleaning the blood.
What characterizes it: it is due to alterations in the kidney's structures present from birth; in some variants, hearing or vision may also be affected.
Common manifestations: blood or foam in the urine, and in more advanced stages, changes in kidney function.
