Hereditary Nephritis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
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.
Who to see? The nephrologist and, in children, the pediatric nephrologist are the right choice to study the case. An early assessment with these specialists helps to better understand the family and personal situation.
