I've got a creatinine level of 1.2 and my serum urea is 22. I'm really wondering if those numbers mean my kidneys are in good shape or if there's something to worry about. Any advice on how I might be able to bring down the creatinine level?

How fast does chronic kidney disease progress?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's got this kidney issue, diagnosed with CKD, and though he's stable now, today he mentioned he's having trouble urinating and the amount has decreased. I was wondering if giving him Urispas would help with his urination. Do you think it's okay to give him that?
