What to expect after renal biopsy is done?
Normal eating and drinking can be resumed when the patient is awake. Rest by lying flat on the back to press on the wound site to stop bleeding if any. The patient will be monitored overnight for any signs of bleeding. The patient will be reviewed and discharged the next day. Refrain from physical exercise for up to six months. The discharge advice includes returning to hospital if there is heavily blood-stained urine especially in the presence of blood clots, pain over biopsy site, fever, abdominal pain and vomiting.
