Brief Answer: nephritis is of many types and treatment Detailed Answer: Hi XXXX If you have nephritis we should first know which type of nephritis it is. The following reports are important please inform. urine routine findings including rbcs and wbc in urine, urine protien estimation by protein creatinine ration in urine. serum creatinine level and ultrasound report. If you are already diagnosed case of nephritis then the doctor must have done a kidney biopsy to see the cause of nephritis. kindly inform any such reports if available. Do you have swelling in legs?
