Is Incresed Creatinine In Patient With Kidney Disease Curable
High creatinine level is often a dangerous sign for patient with kidney disease, and it is curable?
Why can patient with kidney disease have increased creatinine?
Creatinine is a metabolic product of muscle, and it should be filtered out by kidney. In fact, creatinine level in patient’s body can be affected by many factors, but most cases may not stay long.
While if increased creatinine is due to patient’s kidney damage, it will be a dangerous sign. Creatinine will accumulate patient’s blood when his kidney function is not able to filter the metabolic wastes out adequately. And patient will not have high creatinine level unless more than half kidney function is damaged.
Is increased creatinine level caused by kidney disease curable?
To treat high creatinine caused by kidney disease, patient’s kidney function should be improved, so patient’s kidney damage should be repaired and his kidney disease should be controlled.
In fact, kidney disease is divided into acute kidney disease and chronic kidney disease, and both acute kidney disease and chronic kidney disease can cause patient to have increased creatinine.
Acute kidney disease is dangerous for patient, because it can cause death if patient has not accept treatment timely. But acute kidney disease is able to be reversed, and patient’s kidney function is able to recover to normal condition, so creatinine is able to be kept in its normal level.
While chronic kidney disease can progress gradually, and this disease has no cure so far. What we can say is patient’s condition can be controlled in its early stage. If patient has high creatinine, which means patient’s kidneys have been damaged severely, patient’s kidney function can be improved obviously at this point, but it may be severer again if patient has not take care of himself. So increased creatinine caused by chronic kidney disease can not be reversed.
