Could +2 Protein In Urine Cause Kidney Damage?
My 8 year old son has had protein in his urine for 6 weeks now. We have an appointment next week with paediatrician. He also has insomnia and is constantly eating but he is losing weight. The GP checked his urine and the protein was +2 and the specificgravity was 1.030. He suffered multiple recurrences of Henoch Schonlein Purpura 2 years ago. Could this be a sign of kidney damage??

i read your question and understand your concern
according to your child history and reports there is possibility of kidney damage as there is a strong relation between HSP and kidney disease
so i would suggest to take early appointment with your child doctor to get his proper checkup USG and other blood test and to get treatment accordingly
May your son GET WELL SOON
I hope my answer will satisfy you
good luck & tc
