Acute glomerulonephritis is an inflammation of the glomeruli in the kidneys, which can impair their ability to filter blood effectively. This condition often leads to symptoms such as hematuria (blood in urine), proteinuria (excess protein in urine), and edema due to fluid retention. As a result, the urinary system can be affected by reduced urine output and changes in urine composition. If left untreated, acute glomerulonephritis can lead to complications such as chronic kidney disease or kidney failure.
