Accepted Answer

Your serum creatinine level of 1.13 mgdL is within the normal range for adults. The normal range for serum creatinine is approximately 0.6 to 1.3 mgdL for males and 0.5 to 1.1 mgdL for females. It is an important indicator of kidney function. To maintain healthy kidney function, it is important to stay hydrated, eat a balanced diet, and avoid excessive intake of medications that can harm the kidneys. If you have any concerns about your kidney health, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Based on your symptoms, it's possible that you're experiencing a combination of musculoskeletal and gastrointestinal issues. Here's a breakdown:

*Possible Causes*

1. *Musculoskeletal issues*: The discomfort in your left arm, shoulder joint pain, and wrist pain could be related to:
    - Poor posture
    - Muscle strain or overuse
    - Tendinitis or bursitis
2. *Gastrointestinal issues*: The left-side chest pain that comes and goes, accompanied by burping, might be related to:
    - Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
    - Acid reflux
    - Stomach ulcers or inflammation
3. *Other possibilities*: Although less likely, given your previous heart checkup results, other potential causes could include:
    - Costochondritis (inflammation of the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone)
    - Precordial catch syndrome (a benign condition that causes chest pain)

*Recommendations*

1. *Consult your doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician to discuss your symptoms.
2. *Gastrointestinal evaluation*: Your doctor may recommend:
    - Upper endoscopy
    - Barium swallow
    - Ambulatory acid probe test
3. *Musculoskeletal evaluation*: Your doctor may suggest:
    - Physical therapy
    - Stretching exercises
    - Pain management medication

    - Improving your posture

Question 6

I recently had a zsr circumcision on February 22nd and now all the staples along with the silicon ring have fallen off. There's just a tiny bit still attached to the skin and when I try to remove it, it hurts a little, which is really freaking me out...

Accepted Answer

It is not advisable to pull off the remaining portion yourself as it may lead to complications. I recommend visiting your doctor for proper evaluation and guidance on how to proceed. As for sexual activity, it is best to avoid it until you have fully healed to prevent any potential issues or infections.
