Kidney damage in COVID-19 patients is common and can range from mild proteinuria protein in urine), hematuria (blood in urine), and acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT). RRT include intermittent hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, continuous hemofiltration, and hemodialysis. Thank you.
Lots of fluids, avoiding medications that can hurt your kidneys (like NSAIDS), and routinely seeing your primary care dr. Staying hydrated is the best thing for your kidneys!
Good hydration. F/u with nephrologist.
