Can I Use Creatine with Kidney Stones?

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.

Should I take creatine with high uric acid?

Your UA climb was up to 7.9mg/dl and you are considering using creatine. With higher UA comes greater chances for gout, a condition marked by pain and swelling in the joints. You should not take any creatine supplement right now while still eating fish and other high-purine foods since this would elevate your UA even further. To help decrease its level, stick with those things lower in purines.

Could Residual Pain Persist After Passing Kidney Stone?

It sounds like you're experiencing persistent discomfort after passing your kidney stone. This residual pain can sometimes linger as underlying muscle spasms or inflammation in the urinary tract. Since your recent CT scan and urine tests came back normal, it’s not likely an infection or stones. The changes in your diet and hydration are excellent steps. Continue monitoring your symptoms, and consider discussing your pain management options with the nephrologist. If the discomfort worsens or other symptoms develop, don’t hesitate to seek medical advice.
