A member asked:
Does experiencing post streptococcal glomerulonephritis when young, increases the risk of experiencing it again during adulthood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection : If it clears up completely with treatment then you should be fine. However in some cases a chronic state develops and this can lead to end stage renal disease and eventually renal transplant or dialysis. It is very important to make sure that the infection is totally cleared
