Causes Of Acute Nephritis

Acute (sudden onset) nephritis remains one of the most important causes of renal failure, though causes of acute nephritis are sometimes difficult to pinpoint from other causes of renal failure, making diagnosis difficult. Some of the symptoms of acute nephritis are pelvic pain, fever, discomfort during urination, frequent urination, cloudy or bloody urine, abdominal pain, vomiting, and swelling in the feet and legs. Elevated blood pressure may also occur during nephritis. Acute nephritis needs to be addressed when symptoms arise. Certain individuals are at higher risk for acute nephritis.
