What does urine report as Albumin present 3+ suggest in children?
Patient: Hello Doctor, I have more than a year that i have pain in the lest side of my throat especially when i swallow my saliva(no problem with food or drinks) i have a swallen gland under my chin(it comes and goes, did a CT its ok), i get mild ear ache and neck pain (all this is on my left side) i eat and sleep well. i am stressed and worried Doctor: HiThanks for writing to us. The symptoms are of tonsillitis with reactive lymphadenitis.I usually prescribe amoxicillin for a week to resolve this. Urine albumin 3 + is usually seen in nephrotic syndrome. Consult your doctor immediately. He needs further tests and treatment with prednisone. Regards
