Symptoms Of Acute Nephritis

Vomiting

Vomiting is not as common of a symptom in all types of acute nephritis, but it has been seen in patients with glomerulonephritis. The kidneys are the body's waste-clearing organs, and the glomerulus acts as a filter. When the kidneys fail to deal with waste properly, the body will try to find other ways to expel it, including throwing up. This is the most common in children who have nephrotic syndrome, where the kidneys end up leaking out excess proteins since the glomeruli are too damaged to properly filter them. Diarrhea might also occur in these cases.
