Is lemon good to reduce creatinine?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI'm really worried about my father. He's got an electrolyte issue, and his sodium level is at 131, potassium is 4.4, and chloride is at 93. Are these levels something to be concerned about? What steps can we take to address this imbalance?
Your father's electrolyte levels show a slight imbalance. To correct this, I recommend using a medication called "Oral Rehydration Solution" with a dosage of 200-400 ml every 1-2 hours until the electrolyte levels stabilize. This solution will help replenish the sodium, potassium, and chloride levels in his body.

My mom is 65 and her recent tests show EGFR 76 with creatinine at 0.93 mg/dl she's been diagnosed with CKD stage 2. Is treatment necessary at this point or is it okay to just monitor? Should we see a nephrologist now or wait? Also, she's scheduled for gallstone surgery next month is it safe for her to go ahead with the procedure given her kidney condition?
For a 65-year-old with stage 2 CKD (eGFR 76, creatinine 0.93 mg/dL), monitoring and lifestyle modifications are likely the initial approach, while a nephrologist consultation is recommended, not necessarily immediately, but within the next few months to assess the underlying cause and discuss long-term management options. The gallstone surgery is generally safe if properly managed, especially if the surgeon is aware of the kidney condition.

Im looking at the results from a physical examination and Im a bit worried. It mentions a 'slight turbid' appearance and there's a 'faint trace' of protein in the chemical examination. The microscopic examination shows pus cells at 56 and red cells at 10-12, with epithelial cells marked as 23. Should I be concerned about these results? What could they indicate about my health?
The urine sample shows slight turbidity, with a faint trace of protein in the chemical examination. The microscopic examination reveals 5-6 pus cells, 10-12 red blood cells, and 2-3 epithelial cells, which may indicate mild urinary tract irritation or infection. Its important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and appropriate treatment.
