Damage to the glomeruli cause blood and protein to be lost in the urine condition may develop quickly and kidney function is lost within weeks or months.
A quarter of people with chronic glomerulonephritis have no history of kidney disease. The following may increase your risk of this for condition: * Blood or lymphatic system disorder * Exposure to hydrocarbon solvents * History of cancer * Infections such as STREP INFECTIONS, virus heart infections, or ABSCESSES
Many condition causes or increases the risk for glomerulonephritis, including: * Amyloidosis * Anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody disease * Blood vessel disease, such as vasculitis or polyarteritis * Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis * Good pasture syndrome * Heavy use of pain relievers, especially NSAIDs * Henoch-Schonlein purpura * IgA nephropathy * Lupus nephritis * Membranoprolifeative GN
Symptoms for glomerulonephritis are: * Blood in the urine (dark, rust-colored, brown urine) * Foamy urine (due to excess protein in the urine) * Swelling (edema) of the face, eyes, ankle, feet, legs, or abdomen)
That also include the following: * Blood in the vomit or stools * Cough and SOB * Diarrhea * Excessive urination * Fever * General ill feeling, fatigue, and loss of appetite * Joint or muscle aches * Nosebleed
