Kidney Function Disorders and Creatinine Management

Increased Creatinine / Urea / Uric Acid, Acute & Chronic Kidney Diseases.

Overview

Kidney function disorders occur when the kidneys are unable to filter waste and toxins from the blood effectively. Elevated levels of creatinine, urea, and uric acid are early warning signs of kidney dysfunction. Dr. Srinayan Katari provides specialized diagnosis and treatment for patients with acute and chronic kidney diseases, helping prevent further kidney damage and restoring optimal kidney performance. /p>

FAQs

What does it mean if creatinine is high?
High creatinine indicates reduced kidney filtration and may be an early sign of kidney disease.
Can kidney function improve?
Yes, with early diagnosis, lifestyle changes, and proper treatment, kidney function can stabilize or improve.
What foods increase creatinine?
Red meat, excessive protein, and dehydration can increase creatinine levels.
Can stress cause high creatinine?
Stress does not directly raise creatinine but can worsen BP and diabetes, which damage kidneys.
When is dialysis required?
Dialysis is recommended when kidney function drops below 10–15% or when symptoms become severe.
