Creatinine Levels Checked, High BP, Reduced Kidney Size. What Is The Treatment?
Hello Doctor, My husband age is 29yrs, height 5.8 . Recently we came to know that his creatinine level is 3.1. The doctor we consulted said that it is due to high BP . His BP earlier was 140\80 but now after under medication it remains normal. The size of both the kidneys has also reduced. Rk 8.6 and LK8.8. Please suggest the further course of treatment and also please tell me how severe or how risky is his condition. Please reply as soon as possible. Thanks
Hi Thanks for the query. From the description it looks like your husband is suffering from chronic kidney disease of moderate degree. Further treatment would be aimed at preventing the progression of the disease. You should see a nephrologist who can guide you and keep a regular follow up. There are no immediate risks as such but life long care is required. Hope this helps Good luck.
