Post streptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) is an uncommon
complication of either a strep throat or a streptococcal skin
infection. Symptoms of PSGN develop within 10 days following a strep
throat or 3 weeks following a GAS skin infection. PSGN involves
inflammation of the kidney. Symptoms include pale skin, lethargy,
loss of appetite, headache and dull back pain. Clinical findings may
include dark-colored urine, swelling of different parts of the body
(edema), and high blood pressure. Treatment of PSGN consists of
supportive care. (Source: excerpt from Group A Streptococcal Infections, NIAID Fact Sheet: NIAID)
