Brief Answer:
Possible Nephritis

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I can understand your concerns.

I have worked through the attached documents.

This is definitely not a normal report.

This indicate kindney infection.

At this, point an ultrasound kidney is mandatory in your child to assess the cause of kidney infection.

Further management if any is based on test results.

Most likely antibiotics and steroids might be needed.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
