How to determine which kind of nephritis is caused by occult blood 3+ without protein?

  Patient: Description of condition (onset, main symptoms, hospital visited, etc.): Female patient, age 27. One year ago, the company physical examination found that there was urinary occult blood 2+, protein +, at that time did not care. In April this year, she had another physical examination and was found to have occult blood 3+, no protein, no hypertension, no edema, no urinary frequency and urgency and no back pain, and the rest of the kidney function and urinary routine examination items were all normal.  The hospital checked the red blood cell drainage, the urine was clear, and the red blood cell count was 28.6/ul,the status was non-homogeneous. The doctor diagnosed hematuria, caused by nephritis. Prescribed 5 vials of Kidney FooKang with 1 vial of vitamin E. I haven’t had time to check the efficacy of the treatment.  I have heard that there are more than ten kinds of nephritis, what other tests do I need to do to determine which kind of nephritis I have?  2. Is my nephritis serious? Is there any hope for a cure?  3, what is the impact of nephritis on my life?  Mao Zhiguo: There are more types of nephritis, and the best way to clarify is to perform a kidney puncture pathology biopsy.  Your current clinical manifestations are not heavy, and should be well controlled through good life conditioning and medication. But the vast majority of nephritis is a chronic course, just like hypertension and diabetes, chronic diseases are more difficult to cure completely. However, as long as the indicators are well controlled, such as blood pressure, blood sugar, urine protein and hematuria, the impact on kidney function is minimal in the long run, which means that it is unlikely to cause us any major problems.  Having nephritis, if the general condition is well controlled, it should be said that there is not much impact on our life. However, I hope you can maintain a regular and healthy lifestyle, review all kidney indicators regularly, and avoid abusing drugs, especially antipyretic and analgesic drugs and antibiotics. Keeping closer contact with your doctor will be helpful to know and control your condition at any time.
