Interstitial Nephritis treatment in Benito Juárez

Assessment of interstitial nephritis is the job of the nephrologist, a specialist in the kidney. It is an inflammation of the tissue surrounding the kidney's filtering structures, which can alter their functioning.

Common symptoms: a decrease or changes in the amount of urine, swelling, fatigue, fever and, at times, skin rashes; some cases have few symptoms.

Common causes: reactions to certain drugs, infections, or diseases that affect the immune system.

When should you see a doctor? If changes in the urine, persistent swelling, or unexplained general malaise appear, a checkup is worthwhile. When it occurs in children, the pediatric nephrologist steps in to study the case properly.
