Many people with kidney damage can get high creatinine level. What is creatinine? How does high creatinine affect your life? What are the options for it? Let us learn it together:
Creatinine is a waste product that is made when your body breaks down protein you eat and when muscles are injured. A high serum (blood) creatine level means kidney damage. It may vary somewhat, even when the kidneys work normally. So, your doctor should check your level more than once before diagnosing CKD. Creatinine levels tend to be higher in men and people with large muscles. Measuring creatinine is only the first step to finding your level of kidney function.
While how to lower the high creatinine level?
Since the high creatinine level is the result of kidney damage, the basic method to reduce creatinine is to repair and recover the kidney function. Dysfunction of kidneys is mainly due to the damage renal intrinsic cells. There are five kinds of renal intrinsic cells. Damage to any kind of renal intrinsic cells can lead to impaired kidney function.
As to people with Chronic Kidney Disease, under the invasion of virus, renal intrinsic cells will be damaged someday, leading to the damage of glomerulus. Once glomerulus is damaged, the filtration function will be impaired and as a result, creatinine which should have been discharged can not be excreted any more. With the retention of creatine, high creatinine level appears. This is the reason why high creatinine level usually appears among people with Chronic Kidney Disease.

Firstly, grind the effective medicine ingredients to make the best use of it.
Secondly, make external application by using certain penetrants and equipments to permeate effective parts of medicine into focus of kidney.
