Frequently Asked Questions

Common conditions include nephrotic syndrome, urinary tract infections (UTIs), kidney stones, acute kidney injury, cystic kidney diseases, and bladder control issues like bedwetting

Symptoms include swelling around the eyes and legs, foamy urine, weight gain, and fatigue due to excess protein loss in urine.

A UTI is diagnosed through urine tests such as urinalysis and urine culture to identify bacteria causing the infection

Frequent UTIs may occur due to poor hydration, improper cleaning habits, constipation, reflux of urine (VUR), or structural abnormalities of the urinary tract.

Yes. Bedwetting is common up to 5–7 years of age. If it continues beyond this age or occurs with other symptoms, a doctor should evaluate it.

Kidney stones can result from low water intake, high salt diet, metabolic issues, genetics, or certain medical conditions that increase crystal formation.

Ensure good hydration, reduce salt intake, encourage a balanced diet, and follow medical advice if there is a metabolic or genetic cause.

AKI is a sudden decline in kidney function due to dehydration, infection, certain medications, or severe illness. Early treatment is crucial.

These are conditions where fluid-filled sacs (cysts) form in the kidneys. They may be genetic or developmental and can affect kidney function over time.

Parents should seek a kidney specialist if a child has swelling, high BP, recurrent UTIs, blood in urine, persistent bedwetting, kidney stones, abnormal blood tests, or suspected kidney abnormalities.
