Rare Post Streptococcal Glomerulonephritis  presentations include back pain and constipation

Abstract

Background: Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) is a common disease that occurs after pharyngitis or dermatitis involvement with streptococcus. This disease is self-limiting. Although the disease has some common symptoms like hypertension, oliguria or anuria, and neurological defects, there have been no reports of a child having severe back pain or constipation up until this point. Case presentation: Here, we represent a child with severe back pain and constipation that was diagnosed as PSGN. Conclusion: Despite several studies on PSGN, attention to different associated symptoms could help practitioners with accurate diagnoses. In addition, made us investigate the disease entity.
