Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) can cause high creatinine level

As we know, PKD is a genetic kidney disease with lots of fluid-filled cysts formed in kidneys, and there may be no obvious symptoms in the early stage for PKD patients. However, with the enlargement of kidney cysts and the increase of kidney cysts, it will oppress the surrounding kidney tissues and cause kidney damage. When the kidneys are damaged severely, and people have less than 50% kidney function, patients will get high creatinine level during a blood test.

Creatinine is the waste product of muscle metabolism in blood, and it is mainly excreted by kidneys. Creatinine is a small molecule material which can be excreted by normal kidneys and when the kidney function is more than 50%, the creatinine can also be excreted normally. However, when the kidneys are damaged severely, and the kidney function is less than 50%, the creatinine level in blood will be elevated. So high creatinine level for PKD patients means severe kidney damage and less than 50% kidney function.

What are the symptoms when PKD patients have high creatinine level?

When people suffer from high creatinine level, they will also have high BUN level or other wastes building up in blood. Beside, they will also have some other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, high blood pressure, swelling, itchy skin, etc.

How to treat high creatinine level for PKD?

When PKD patients suffer from high creatinine level, they need to have effective treatment to lower their high creatinine level. Here we recommend Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, which can help increase the blood volume, and remove more toxins and wastes into urine. Besides, it can also repair the damaged kidney tissues and improve the kidney function. When the kidney function are improved, the creatinine level can be lowered naturally and fundamentally as well.
