Nephrotic Syndrome is a kidney disorder causing massive protein loss in urine, low blood protein, and swelling. Damaged glomeruli allow protein leakage, compromising the blood’s ability to retain fluid inside vessels, leading to significant edema. Patients are also at increased risk for infections and blood clots. Dr Vishal Golay – Kidney Doctor in Siliguri, offers comprehensive treatment to control symptoms and address underlying causes.

Symptoms:

• Heavy foamy urine
• Swelling in legs, ankles, feet, and around eyes

Causes:
