Is It Safe To Use An Infrared Sauna After Kidney Transplat?
Is it safe and/or helpful to use an infrared sauna after receiving a kidney transplant? I had some complications right after the surgery involving clotting in the kidney, but since then my creatinine has held steady at about 1.7/1.8. Are their any benefits for me?
