Nephrotic syndrome may occur when the filtering units of the kidney are damaged. This damage allows protein normally kept in the plasma to leak into the urine in large amounts, which reduces the amount of protein in your blood. Since the protein in the blood helps keep fluid in the bloodstream, some of this fluid leaks out of the bloodstream into your tissues, causing swelling, called edema. The swelling may be most noticeable in your legs after you have been standing and around your eyes when you first get up in the morning. Eventually, the swelling in your legs may be there all the time, and it may also occur in other parts of your body. You may notice that your urine foams more than usual because of the amount of protein in it. There are four main signs or symptoms that make up nephrotic syndrome. They are: Too much protein in your urine. Doctors call this proteinuria. High fat and cholesterol levels in the blood. The medical term for it is “hyperlipidemia.” Swelling of your legs, feet and ankles, and sometimes of your hands and face. This is called edema. Low levels of albumin in your blood. Your doctor may call this “hypoalbuminemia.” Homeopathic Treatment for Nephrotic Syndrome Medicines that work well in the homeopathic treatment for nephrotic syndrome are Apis Mellifica, Apocynum Cannabinum, Arsenic Album, and Terebinthina.
