My seventeen year old son has calcification of his right kidney...he has developed blue tinged arms with marked red spots with a white area around them. We have been referred to the hospital but told we may wait until morning. He is otherwise well. Have you any ideas (urinalysis at GP with stick is normal) Many thanks
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist, i can understand your concern. Calcification is deposition of calcium salts in the organ or tissue. This is usually due to hyperkalemia, genetic or autoimmune disorders. He must be seen by a Urologist or a Nephrologist and do these tests :1. 24 hours urine for calcium, phosphorus and uric acid.2. Blood calcium, phosphorus,uric acid, routine,creatinine, RBS and LFT.3. A ACTIVE or a CENT. According to reports, cause for calcification and its treatment, is advised. You may send reports to me, as a direct question, for an expert opinion. Chat Doctor.  Manga.
