Is 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.

_Chest Pain with Needle-Like Sensation: Possible Causes_ Feeling like needles are poking your heart can be a concerning and uncomfortable sensation. This symptom can be related to various conditions, ranging from mild to serious. Here are some possible causes: *Cardiac-Related Causes* 1. *Angina*: Reduced blood flow to the heart muscle can cause chest pain, which may feel like needles poking. 2. *Myocardial infarction (Heart Attack)*: A blockage in the coronary arteries can cause severe chest pain, including a needle-like sensation. 3. *Pericarditis*: Inflammation of the sac surrounding the heart (pericardium) can cause sharp, stabbing chest pain. *Non-Cardiac Causes* 1. *Costochondritis*: Inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone (sternum) can cause sharp, stabbing pain. 2. *Precordial catch syndrome*: A benign condition characterized by sudden, sharp chest pain, often feeling like a needle or pin. 3. *Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)*: Stomach acid flowing back up into the esophagus can cause chest pain, including a burning or needle-like sensation. 4. *Anxiety or panic attacks*: Stress and anxiety can manifest as physical symptoms, including chest pain or a needle-like sensation. *What to Do* If you're experiencing a needle-like sensation in your chest, it's essential to seek medical attention to rule out any underlying cardiac conditions.
