When should I take my child to a paediatric nephrologist?

A visit and consultation with a pediatric nephrologist near you are advisable if your child has recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), if there is blood in the child's urine, if the child has high blood pressure, if tests reveal proteinuria, kidney structure abnormalities in a diagnostic scan, if the child has been diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome or chronic kidney diseases, if kidney transplantation has been advised, or if there is a known kidney disease and required specialist monitoring.

What conditions do paediatric nephrologists treat?  

The most common conditions treated by the paediatric nephrologist are described below:

  • Congenital disabilities of the kidneys
  • Urinary bladder problems
  • Glomerular filtration problems
  • Childhood nephrotic syndrome
  • Hemolytic uremic syndrome
  • Kidney damage from toxic byproducts
  • Hereditary kidney diseases-polycystic kidney disease
  • Kidney stones
  • Kidney failure  

How are kidney disorders diagnosed in children?  

The best pediatric nephrologist in Vijayawada diagnoses kidney disorders in children with the help of a thorough medical history, a physical examination and with the help of diagnostic investigations such as a complete urine examination, blood tests for measurement of creatinine, blood urea and nitrogen, eGFR, etc., and imaging tests such as CT scans or MRI scans. Sometimes, a renal biopsy or genetic testing may also be advised based on the suspected underlying condition.

How are kidney disorders treated in a child?

Kidney disease treatment in children depends on the underlying condition, its severity, and the child's overall health. Treatment options include medications, diet modification, fluid management, surgical interventions if required, renal replacement therapies such as peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis, etc., and renal transplantation in advanced diseases.

While not all renal disorders and diseases can be prevented in children, taking some measures such as maintaining a healthy lifestyle, getting regular exercise, eating a healthy diet, avoiding excessive use of medications, avoiding exposure to harmful environmental toxins, getting regular medical check-ups, and being aware of a family history of renal disease can help in the prevention and management of some kidney diseases.
