View allIs lemon good to reduce creatinine?
Lemon should not increase Uric acid level and should not increase the serum creatinine level. It will increase citrate elimination in the urine which can decrease the rate of kidney stone formation.

I've been having some kidney issues and though I'm not sure exactly what's going on, my doctor mentioned theres a problem. I'm thinking about adding flax seeds to my diet. Are they safe for anyone dealing with kidney problems? I'm really curious to know more.
Your symptoms suggest Phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. Consult a urologist or dermatologist for proper evaluation and diagnosis. Treatment options may include topical steroid creams, manual stretching exercises, or surgical procedures. Your doctor will recommend the best course of treatment based on the severity of your condition. In the meantime, avoid forcing the foreskin back, as this can cause further irritation and pain. Seek medical attention to alleviate your symptoms and prevent potential complications.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been on dialysis for 10 years and was recently admitted to the hospital with a really bad lung infection. They tried some antibiotics like merotac and mucinac but those didnt seem to work. Then they sent his sputum culture to Hinduja hospital, and once they figured out the bacteria, they switched up his treatment. He was on Mikacin and Zonamax for a bit, and then they put him on Altitpod CV 200. He's doing a bit better now but his cough hasn't improved at all, and he still needs oxygen when he feels tired after walking a bit at home. I'm just wondering if you think the treatment he's getting is right and if there's anything we can do to help with his cough. Any advice you could offer would be great.
