Hi. My father is 58years old. He had his kidney removed in 2010. From the past 3 months his creatinine levels is increasing, currently its 1.52. I wanted to know what is causing this, whats the treatment to lower it and whether it can cause any distress on the kidney..
Your 58 years old father has reported to have raised creatinine levels (1.57).
This is marginally high ..Since he has only one kidney it could be due to infection of due to enlarged prostate which is common at this age .
Please consult qualified Urologist and get him evaluated thoroughly .. It is very important that he should be free from getting UTI and any urinary problems . Ensure he drinks more water to produce ore urine .
Restrict dietary proteins,meat and have sumptuous fruits and vitamins.
