Can nephritis be detected by urinalysis

Urinalysis can detect some of the abnormal indicators of nephritis, but it can’t directly confirm the diagnosis through urinalysis. The symptoms of nephritis are hematuria, proteinuria, swelling, hypertension, etc. After having nephritis, you can take urine routine test, if the urine protein and/or occult blood is positive in the urine routine, and at the same time, combined with swelling, hypertension and other symptoms, it can be highly considered as glomerulonephritis. If you have glomerulonephritis, you can take oral renin-angiotensin-aldosterone receptor antagonists as prescribed by your doctor, such as captopril and irbesartan, which will have a good effect. If necessary, renal puncture biopsy can be perfected to clarify the type of pathology, and oral hormones (e.g., prednisone acetate) or immunosuppressants (e.g., cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine) can be taken under the guidance of physicians. If the patient has any discomfort or abnormal urine routine, it is recommended to consult a regular hospital in time and standardize the treatment under the guidance of a physician.
