Hi you have not mentioned your sons age. Most of the childhood nephrotic syn Chat Doctor. Your son has again developed proteinuria, so he is probably in relapse. Check proteinuria again for next two days. If it remains >1+, he again requires prednisolone therapy. You may require to continue prednisolone for long period of time or another immunosuppressive medicines. If relapses are more frequent renal biopsy may be required. Consult your nephrologistTake care
