This means less creatinine in your system. Lower creatinine is good - it shows less strain. High creatinine brings tiredness, swelling, trouble urinating. Keep tracking your progress carefully. If new worries arise, like changes in how you feel, let your nephrologist know right away.

34years male I have been diagnosed with mild phylonepritis and uti it's been more than months taken antibiotics courses but still having mild to mild pain on left side and having lower back pain too . What to do
Male | 34
The left side and lower back pain you are feeling could be linked to infections. Occasionally, these infections develop resistance and need more care. It's essential to drink a sufficient amount of fluids and rest, as well as keep seeing your nephrologist to ensure everything is fine and to determine if a change of treatment is needed.

I am 20 years old female. I have high creatinine levels in my blood/urine. Leakage of protein I am on blood pressure tablets Ramipril 2.5mg I have this condition for 3 years and have not seen hardly any changes. I want to see someone who is an expertise in this field of kidneys
Female | 20
High creatinine levels and protein leaking into your urine are signs of kidney disease. If you combine these symptoms with the medication you have been prescribed for hypertension it could mean that what you are suffering from is called ‘proteinuria’ which affects only the kidneys. Make sure to see a nephrologist who can examine them further. They will be able to advise on how best this should be treated according to your condition.

Hi, I have end-stage kidney failure and I've been doing hemodialysis for 4 years now, and I've been worrying about my fistula or how long it is going to last before I get a tube stuck in my neck as an alternative. Today, the bulge on my arm which I assume is the fistula got moved or at least something got moved slightly causing discomfort and a change of shape of the bulge. Is that a cause for concern? It doesn't have redness or pain in the exact place, but I'm worried sick. Can this be fixed by a surgery? Other questions that have been bothering me. How about if it got ruptured? It started to bulge and reddened. Can it still be fixed? Also, let's say my left arm fistula died and I had to use my right arm. Can I still use my left arm for fistula once it's healed in the future? Thank you for your answers in advance, I'm a teenager who got dealt with a bad hand right from the get-go and I wish to know more about my current situation.

It’s understandable to be concerned about changes in your fistula. If you notice any discomfort, change in shape, or other symptoms like redness, it's important to check it. A vascular surgeon can assess your fistula and determine if any intervention is needed. Even if your current fistula fails, it's possible to create a new one in the same arm after healing. This should be evaluated by your doctor. Please consult your nephrologist or a vascular surgeon for a detailed examination and advice.

What type of disease is this symptoms, 1.swollen legs and hands 2.internal joints pain 3.feet and finger pain 4.smelly urine when peeing during swollen legs
Female | 27
Swelling of the legs and hands, painful joints inside your body, and also hurting feet and fingers can be caused by a condition called Rheumatoid Arthritis. The immune system gets confused and starts to attack the joints which are the reasons for the pain and inflammation. Smelly urine during swollen legs might be a sign of kidney problems. Enough water intake and medication are the ways to manage symptoms.

I am having hematuria since last night. Iam diagnosed with kidney stone last year.is hematuria due to kidney stone. But I'm not experiencing any pain
Female | 20
Hematuria, or blood in the urine, can be concerning. One likely reason is a kidney issue. Even without symptoms, it’s important to find the cause. The three main reasons are infection, a moving stone, or injury. Diagnosis is usually made through tests by a healthcare provider. Treatment varies and can include increased water intake and medications. Talking to a nephrologist is best to understand what’s happening in the body.

Hi wondering is protein trace leukocytes and high ph on urine dip test a sign of kidney infection? Also has flank pain and nausea
Female | 17
When your urine test finds protein, white blood cells, and high pH with flank pain or nausea, it may mean a kidney infection. Bacteria entering the bladder usually causes these infections. Drink lots of water. Take antibiotics your doctor prescribes. See a nephrologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Several things might have caused the growth you noticed like a tumor or cyst. So you need to see a nephrologist who can properly evaluate what’s going on with your body and give a treatment plan to help ease these symptoms.

If no then what's the reason I'm feeling all these?
Female | 22
The symptoms you pointed out - low energy, lower back pain, stomach ache, joint pain - can be observed even after a kidney infection. It could be the body recovering, thus, the fatigue and the aches. Sometimes, the effects that are left over can last for quite a long time. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a nephrologist for further advice.

Dr, I was diagnosed with IGA nephropathy 32 years ago. I am 64 years of age and my creatinine is 2.31 and has been hovering around that number. I have lost 124 lbs over the past year with the assistance of Zepbound. My kidneys have not improved and appear to be getting slightly worse. I run 3 miles a day and eat around 1200 calories a day never exceeding my sodium or potassium requirements. I do not have protein or blood in my urine. Please help. What is causing my creatinine to continue to rise? I am currently In Stage 4 kidney disease. Should I get an updated biopsy since my only biopsy was done in 1992. What can I do? Could the Zepbound be causing my kidneys to worsen? I drink 100 ounces of water daily.
Female | 64
It is concerning that your creatinine levels are rising despite your efforts. IGA nephropathy can progress slowly over time, and factors like age, diet, and medications may influence kidney function. Zepbound's impact on your kidneys should be evaluated by a specialist. I strongly advise you to consult a nephrologist for a thorough assessment and consider getting an updated biopsy to understand the current state of your kidney disease.

My girlfriend is suffering from kidney stone, so my question is can we do intercourse during?
Female | 45
It's important to be gentle with someone who has kidney stones, as they often experience intense pain. Intercourse may worsen the pain or cause infections. Kidney stones typically cause stomach and back pain, blood in the urine, and a frequent urge to urinate. To help your girlfriend, ensure she stays well-hydrated and take her to a nephrologist for proper treatment.

Aoa, I m 43 year old male suffering from RENAL FAILURE my reports are as under . Creatinine is 19.4 Urea 218 Hb 8.4 Vomiting Abdominal pain
Male | 43
Your kidneys may not be working properly, leading to high levels of creatinine and urea in your blood. These substances should be filtered out by the kidneys but are staying in your bloodstream, causing symptoms like fatigue, low hemoglobin, vomiting, and abdominal pain. To start feeling better, you may need treatments like dialysis and medications to lower these levels. Renal failure is a serious condition, so it's important to follow a nephrologist's guidance for proper management.

I am 48 years old. There is albumin (protein)+1 present in my kidneys. I am experiencing a fever as well as pain in my back. I have hypertension and diabetes as well.
Female | 48
According to what you have said, it may be a sign that there is an infection in one or both of the kidneys or even some sort of damage if the protein in your urine is accompanied by other symptoms like fever, backache, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Having protein present within urine isn’t normal at all, especially when taken together with these other signs. So you must see a nephrologist as soon as possible to have this checked out.

5mm stone left renal calculus and there is hard pain in kidney
Male | 25
A 5mm kidney stone in your left side can cause severe pain. Urine minerals gather and create the stone. Intense, stabbing pain may spread to your back or abdomen. Drink lots of water to help flush out the stone. Your nephrologist might give medicine to ease pain and help the stone pass more easily. In some cases, they may do a procedure to break up or remove the stone. Follow your doctor's advice carefully to manage the pain and get rid of that stone.

My son suffering from dm 1 ,now ckd ,what may be solution
Male | 25
Diabetes type 1 and chronic kidney disease make a challenging combo. Kidneys can get damaged by diabetes over time. Look out for fatigue, swelling, and urinary troubles - these signal kidney problems. Controlling blood sugar levels and blood pressure helps protect the kidneys. Eating right and regular doctor visits matter a lot.

This is Salam Aziz from Iraq male with 58 years old.my CT scan report shows my left kidney normal BUT there are two well define non enhancing cysts one lower cortical measure 11 mm @ the other larger exophytic measure 75 x 55 mm ( Bosniak I) . The doctors here told me i have two options either remove it or only remove the tumor and leave the rest.I am with the second option if possible ? I am ready to fly to india. please dont hesitate to ask any question. Best Regards Salam Aziz saal6370@gmail.com +964 770 173 8677
Male | 58
your CT scan report reveals two cysts in the left kidney and one is a larger exophytic cyst classified as Bosniak I it can be explained why less invasive alternatives options are to consider. The second alternative that you described, namely the excision of a tumor (presumably a large cyst) alone while sparing other parts of the kidney. The ultimate decision should be discussed with your urologist or surgeon.

Is nic showing on a bloodtest
Female | 17
When getting a blood test, it may show if someone has too much 'NIC' in their system. This happens when people eat too many things with salt or if their kidneys are not working well. If you feel thirsty and tired all the time, or if your feet and legs swell up - those could be signs that something is wrong because of too much 'NIC'.
