Condition
Glomerular Disease
Glomerulonephritis is a kidney disease that involves inflammation of tiny filter units in the kidneys called glomeruli. Due to inflammation, these filters can leak blood and protein into the urine. Symptoms may include dark brown-colored urine (from blood and protein) and diminished urine output.
Overview
A glomerular disease refers to a kidney disorder affecting the tiny filters units within the kidney called glomeruli. Damage to these filters may lead to the leak of blood and proteins into the urine, swelling, high blood pressure and impaired kidney function.
Treatment
Treatment for glomerular diseases may include immunosuppressive therapy, medications to reduce proteinuria, antihypertensive therapy and specific dietary modifications.
