What Is the Condition of Kidney when Serum Creatinine Is 7.6

Creatinine is a waste product passed out of the body by kidneys. From creatinine level, we can tell how well the kidneys are functioning. What is the condition of kidney when serum creatinine is 7.6?

Serum creatinine 7.6 means your kidneys are severely damaged.

Healthy kidneys filter creatinine from the blood and keep it into a range of 0.5-1.2 mg/dL. Our body has immense compensation. When some parts of kidneys are damaged, the intact part of kidneys may proliferate to make up the lost function. That is why creatinine level does not increase quickly until more than 50% kidney function has been lost. Creatinine 7.6 is much higher than the normal creatinine range, which indicates the toxin concentration in the blood is very high and you are in end stage renal failure. In this stage, you may have to take on dialysis or kidney transplant to maintain your life. If you do not want to take kidney replacement treatment, you should repair the damaged kidneys and restore kidney function.

Treatment for you to lower creatinine 7.6

-Dialysis can cleanse your blood directly, but it has many complications, such as skin itch and muscle cramp. Besides, once you start dialysis, you can not stop it. As long as you stop it, creatinine level increases quickly.

-Kidney transplant is also helpful for lowering creatinine level. But you may have to wait a long time for a suitable kidney source. Before transplant, dialysis is needed to purify the blood.

-TCM treatment is a good choice for you to restore kidney function. For example, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can expand blood vessels and block blood clotting to increase blood flow into the kidneys. It can also suppress kidney inflammation and stop kidney fibrosis. Medicated Bath, Mai Kang, Circle Therapy and Enema Therapy are also common used therapies to improve blood circulation and help kidney recovery.

Serum creatinine 7.6 should be attached importance. If you do not take treatment as early as possible, it may cause some complications such as heart failure to threaten your life.
