Questions & Answers on "Nephrologist/Renal Specialist" (14)
Can I take creatine if I have kidney stone?
Male | 23
Having a kidney stone might mean creatine isn't safe. Kidney stones can cause your back or side - and sometimes your belly - to hurt. They're normally a group of minerals or salts stuck together in the kidneys. By taking creatine, you could potentially make kidney stones more painful because it adds stress to your kidneys. Get advice from a nephrologist before starting creatine if you have kidney stones.

The test report shows that your right kidney is good. But the left kidney has a bit of trouble. Some damage is there in the outer part of the left kidney. You may not have any problems right now. But you should look for pain or change in urine. To help your left kidney, you should drink lots of water. You should also talk to a nephrologist for more advice soon.

My WNC in urine is elevated to 250. What is the cause and treatment?
Female | 49
If your urine has many white blood cells or "WNC," it signifies a urinary tract infection. Peeing may cause pain, and you might feel an urge to pee frequently with cloudy urine. Drinking lots of water helps, but antibiotics from a nephrologist are needed to cure the infection.

hydroniphrosis problem in 2 years baby.before piroplust right kidney work 50%.Ufter piroplust 3 month latter right kidney work 15%...what to do in this sictution
Female | 2
The baby has a condition, hydronephrosis. This is swelling in the kidney from blocked urine flow. It can cause pain, fever, and trouble urinating. Since kidney function decreased, the baby needs more tests like ultrasound or a scan to find the blockage. Treatment may involve a procedure to remove the blockage or medication to improve kidney function. Following the nephrologist's advice for proper care and treatment.

How many points can my creatinine increase with GFR increase after 30 days with stage 4 ckd eating low phosphorus potassium protein and sodium. I have lost some weight using peddler. In the past 30 days my blood pressure and blood sugar have been stable
Male | 76
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.
