Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

Interstitial nephritis is the infection of nephrons (basic filtering unit of kidney) involving interstitium of kidney surrounding tubules.

Here, I will need information regarding your mother's routine blood counts,renal function tests and ultrasound scan with the treatment being given to her at present.
