What Can Causes Creatinine Level To Increase

What Can Causes Creatinine Level To Increase Creatinine is an important standard to assess patient’s kidney condition in medical examination, and high creatinine often indicates patient’s kidney damage has already been damaged severely. And what on earth can cause creatinine level to increase?

Why creatinine is used for assessing patient’s kidney condition?

Creatinine is a metabolic waste of muscle, and it is toxic to our body. Creatinine should be filtered out by kidney, and because little creatinine can be reabsorbed back to blood by kidney tubule, so its level in blood can reflect patient’s kidney condition.

What can cause creatinine level to increase?

As we have said, creatinine is the metabolic waste of muscle, so its level in blood can be affected by many factors.

There are some common factors that can cause patient with kidney disease to have high creatinine. For example, when patient take much meat in his diet, his serum creatinine level will rise. If patient has taken strenuous exercise, his muscle will produce lots of creatinine, and that can also make patient have high creatinine. Besides, if patient have severe hydration due to sweating or vomiting, his creatinine level in blood will also increase. But on the other hand, high creatinine level caused by these factors can recover to normal value in a short time if patient takes appropriate measures to cope with.

However, high serum creatinine can also be caused by kidney damage. When patient’s GFR has decreased to a certain degree, his kidney function will not be able to filter the wastes and toxins out from his blood, so creatinine will also accumulate in his body, and that is why patient with kidney disease may have continuous high creatinine levels.
