The back and abdominal discomfort you’re experiencing could be associated with kidney stones, which may also lead to irritation. The pain while breathing, along with blood in your phlegm, suggests a need for further evaluation. These signs, while often manageable, should not be overlooked. I recommend scheduling an appointment with your healthcare provider for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment. Staying hydrated and avoiding strenuous activity can be beneficial in the meantime.

I wanna take creatine as I've been going to gym lately. but I've kidney stones. will i be fine if i take it? I'll drink adequate amount of water.
Male | 18
Kidney stones cause concern about creatine use during workouts. Creatine may strain kidneys, so if you have kidney stones, discuss supplements with a nephrologist first.

Sir my dad kidney serum creatinine is 7.54 what is the solution
Male | 60
Your kidneys are having trouble. A creatinine level of 7.54 is too high. This means they aren't functioning properly. You may feel tired, puffy, or notice changes in how you pee. It could be kidney disease or another health issue causing this. You need to see a nephrologist right away. They'll likely prescribe medicine, recommend diet adjustments, or suggest dialysis.

Hello, please is Creatine 5g daily for people with just a little bit of kidney dysfunction?
Male | 21
If you have kidney trouble, be careful about taking 5g of creatine per day. These conditions could get worse if you do. Some signs that your kidneys may not be working properly are tiredness, swelling (particularly around the ankles), and difficulty falling asleep at night. Before starting any new supplements, it is important to talk with a nephrologist first.

My wife is 39 years old suffering from CKD.Her cretanine pevel is 6.4
Female | 39
Your wife is likely to be getting symptoms such as fatigue, swelling, and trouble breathing if the creatinine level is 6.4. This could be from Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), which is when the kidneys get damaged. To help manage this, she needs to follow a low-salt diet, take the prescribed medications, and possibly undergo dialysis. It's vital to ensure that her condition is stable by doing regular check-ups.

Sorry to hear that your mother is struggling with her health issues. Protein in the urine, stomach discomfort, high blood pressure, and diabetes are notable ailments. Her kidney problems can also be explained by these symptoms. Your mother must go to the hospital as fast as possible to receive a proper diagnosis and a treatment plan. Please arrange an appointment with a health professional.

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.

Firstly, approximately 20 years ago, I experienced a significant shoulder impact while playing football, resulting in a sprain that extends from my neck to the back of my shoulder. Whenever I engage in physical activity, particularly on the injured right shoulder side, I feel a burning sensation accompanied by heat. Additionally, I've noticed that my right hip appears elevated since the injury. In a previous scan, I discovered a left-sided disc prolapse. Moreover, I occasionally experience sprains in the middle of my back. I have not been taking any medications for this issue as previous doctors have been unable to identify the problem. I am concerned about the long-term implications and would greatly appreciate your expertise in evaluating and providing guidance on the appropriate course of action. Are there any specific tests or examinations that you recommend to better understand the underlying causes and potential treatment options for my shoulder, hip, and back issues? Furthermore, I recently discovered that I have kidney stones in both of my kidneys. I do not have diabetes or high blood pressure, and I am not diagnosed with arthritis. Additionally, I have been informed that I have elevated uric acid levels. Considering these multiple health concerns, I am wondering if blood tests or any other diagnostic tests would be beneficial in identifying any potential connections between these issues and guiding the most appropriate treatment plan.
Male | 44
To address your musculoskeletal concerns consult an orthopedic specialist. They would recommend imaging studies, physical therapy, and medications as needed. For your kidney stones and elevated uric acid, seek guidance from a urologist nearest to you or a nephrologist who can perform diagnostic tests. I suggest to follow certain dietary changes, and monitor your kidney health. Open communication with your specialists for a tailored treatment plan for your multiple health concerns.

Nephrologist consultation
Male | 60
Usual circumstances that necessitate a visit to a nephrologist are issues like high blood pressure or chronic urinary tract infections, which may eventually attack the kidneys. Upon your visit to the nephrologist, the doctor will examine a few tests to see how your kidneys are functioning and then give the best treatment plan to you based on the findings.

11 days ago I transplant kidney but urine follows very slow. Kidney are ok but kidney under one Mali light damage this is recovery possible
Male | 53
Slow urine flow often follows kidney transplants. The surgery or swelling may slightly harm and constrict the flow. Consume lots of fluids, which aids in smooth drainage. Usually, this issue resolves naturally during recovery. However, if the problem persists, visit a nephrologist.

Hi I am Sri lekha one and I have delivered half year completed just formality I have tested creatine in that 0.4 have came for nitrogen urea 11 , please suggest me shall I meet doctor or can I leave it
Female | 23
According to the information, you underwent some medical tests and the feedback indicated a slightly higher creatinine level and a high urea nitrogen content. These are mechanisms that are directly related to kidney function. Symptoms can include feeling tired, swelling, and stenosis. Diarrhea, urine smell, and hair loss are some of the side effects of whey protein can cause too. The causes can be dehydration, certain medications, or kidney issues. You should ask a nephrologist for advice about what to do next.

Male | 24
The function of the kidneys worsens when you eat large amounts of protein, and the kidney problems become more severe. The extremely high rates of creatine supplements can make the kidneys unable to function properly. Before you start any regimen, consult with your doctor to figure out the best approach that is right for your body.

I'm a CKD Patient. The creatinine level is 1.88. Meditation is going on under a nephrologist but, creatinine progression is continued. please need your guidance & meditation.
Male | 52
CKD patients with constantly rising levels of creatinine are a concern that can cause fear. This could be the case of some factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or even medication problems. It is vital to strictly adhere to the nephrologist's advice, adopt a strict kidney-friendly diet, control blood pressure and blood sugar levels, and drink enough water. Your nephrologist may require you to change your medications or suggest dialysis.

For a dialysis patient unwell for a year, it’s important to stay alert to symptoms like fatigue, swelling, or difficulty breathing, as these may indicate the dialysis isn’t working effectively. This can happen due to missed treatments, not taking medications, or poor diet choices. It's essential to consult the dialysis team to address these issues and adjust the treatment plan for better health.

Female | 75
In a 75-year-old female with a GFR of 8.4, kidney function is severely compromised, and dialysis is usually necessary for survival. Without dialysis, life expectancy can be short, often a few weeks. It's important to consult a nephrologist for proper treatment and guidance.

what is creatine in kidney? My creatine is found 2.5. What to do now? I have not understood. Is it dangerous for my kidney? Please guide me.
Female | 42
Creatine is produced by the body and generally excreted by the kidneys. A creatinine level over 2.5 can indicate kidney dysfunction. Symptoms may include fatigue or swelling. Conditions such as hypertension or diabetes can lead to this problem. To support your kidneys, ensure sufficient hydration, consume nutritious meals, and adhere to medical advice.

Cardiac or diabetes and issues is proteinurea
Male | 67
If someone is having problems with their heart or diabetes and is also having protein in their urine, this may mean there could be damage to the kidneys. The signs of this illness are the puffiness of the body, the appearance of bubble-like urine, and the presence of hypertension. This can be caused by increased sugar levels or high blood pressure in the blood. Eat healthy, control your blood sugar, and take medication as directed.

This condition can come from many issues, among them kidney function problems, dehydration, or high diets. Symptoms may be such as having tiredness, nausea, or changes in urination. For the treatment of this condition, it is essential to make a regular water intake, proper diet management, and regular health checkups.

I am a kidney patient GFR61 and creatinine 1.08 level CKD stage 2 now Can my kidney function improve and can my kidneys get cured completely and recover without any side effects and without any further damage by Homeopathic medicines and treatment faster
Female | 70
In CKD stage 2, the kidney function is low and can be controlled. Homeopathy may relieve symptoms such as fatigue, edema, and high blood pressure. Still, full cure and recovery without side effects are not a warranty. To keep your kidneys safe, drink water, eat a healthy diet, and take your doctor's advice.

Hi I have a kidney cyst and it's been 8 months since I attended to it is this really not good or what should I do I'm scared
Female | 33
Discovering kidney cysts can be frightening, but stay calm—they're usually harmless and symptom-free. However, if you experience back pain, blood in your urine, or high blood pressure, see a nephrologist promptly. They will likely order tests to assess the situation properly. Delaying care for eight months is inadvisable; prompt evaluation ensures your well-being. Though usually benign, ignoring potential issues can lead to complications. With timely check-ups and appropriate treatment, kidney cysts are manageable.

My mother is a chronic kidney disease patient, with creatinine levels fluctuating between 3 and 5.5. Her feet swell if she consumes raw salt directly, but the swelling only occurs in one foot at a time. Her hemoglobin levels are stable. Occasionally, she experiences electrolyte imbalances, which happen about once a year. She also faces recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Her blood pressure is 130/85, but during winter, it can rise to 190/100, although this happens for a maximum of 1-2 days.
Female | 55
Your mother's creatinine levels indicate that her kidney operation needs to be carefully managed. If feet are swollen, especially after salt intake, say 'fluid retention', which can be seen in kidney disease, is the main problem. Hemoglobin, which varies, is a good sign, but her history of urinary infections and occasional electrolyte issues necessitates deeper examination. The temporary increases in blood pressure might be caused by stress or other environmental factors. It is essential to watch her diet, reduce salt intake, and hydrate properly. I suggest scheduling regular check-ups with a nephrologist to explain her condition and regulate medication with a healthcare professional who can provide customized care
