Glomerulonephritis - when the kidney filters are inflamed. What you should know.
The kidneys play an indispensable role in our body. They filter the blood, remove waste products and regulate the water, salt and acid-base balance. However, various diseases can affect the sensitive filter units of the kidneys, the so-called glomeruli. One of these diseases is glomerulonephritis, an inflammation that disrupts the filtering function of the kidneys and can have serious health consequences.
