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?

I'm experiencing some swelling in my legs and ankles, and I suspect it might be due to water retention. Can you recommend a medical center or a doctor who specializes in this kind of issue? Also, are there any medicines you would suggest that might help with this?

My urinary microalbumin creatinine ratio test shows a microalbumin concentration of 76.43, urinary creatinine concentration of 19.31, and a microalbumin creatinine ratio of 395.80.
