Does protein in urine mean blood?
My son is 5yr old and he had a congenital defect in the kidney since birth. Since few days he had some inflammation and because of which he had swelling all over the body. His urine report shows that there is protein and blood in the urine. What would this mean? Any further tests do you suggest we should do?
