Can High Creatinine Level in Blood Be Lowered
Can high creatinine level in blood be lowered? Patient with kidney disease often have this doubt.
As we know, creatinine is a common method to assess patient’s kidney condition. While high creatinine level may be a sign of kidney failure.
What is creatinine?
To know whether creatinine can be lowered, it is necessary for patient to know what is creatinine.
Creatinine is produced by muscle metabolism. It can be produced by body muscle, and it can also be gotten from the meat we take. Creatinine is toxic to our body, and almost all creatinine produced by our body will be filtered out in the same day. In normal condition, creatinine level in our body changes in astable range.
Why does patient with kidney disease have high creatinine?
High creatinine can be divided into two major patterns. One is kidney failure. As we know, creatinine should be filtered out by kidney, so when patient has severe kidney failure, creatinine will accumulate in patient’s blood, and creatinine level will rise. It is worth mentioning that kidney has strong compensation, and one kidney will be able to guarantee body health. Thereby, when patient find he has high creatinine,it means he already has severe kidney failure.
High creatinine can be caused by many other reasons, like large water loss, much meat intake, strenuous exercise, etc. But high creatinine caused by these reasons will not exist persistently, while high creatinine caused by kidney failure can be continuous. High creatinine that should be concerned by kidney disease patient refers to high creatinine that caused by kidney failure.
Can high creatinine level be lowered?
High creatinine is caused by kidney failure, so to lower high creatinine, the fundamental method is to improve patient’s kidney function. If kidney function is improved, patient’s GFR will rise,and high creatinine level will decline.
Many patients may be told that there is no method to improve patient’s kidney function except for waiting dialysis and kidney transplant. In fact, traditional Chinese medicine is effective in this aspect, because traditional Chinese medicine aims at improving patient self-repairing ability to treat patent’s disease.
