Kidney function Issue
My Dad is 60 years of age, height - 6ft and weight - 100kgs. We did his Creatinine and Uric acid test. The results are as follows:
Creatinine 1.42 mg/dl
Uric Acid - 9.68mg/dl
He also has high BP.
His feet and ankle is always swollen. Visited a local doctor here in our city and as per him no medicine would be required for Uric acid as it will create a side effect.
Request you all to please suggest what does it mean to have this high levels and how should we cure this?
Is the situation alarming?
A month back his creatinine test showed result of 1.32 and now it is 1.42.
Please suggest.
