What is the reason for high creatinine? Common factors include the following

High creatinine is also a relatively common disease. There are many reasons that may cause this disease, the main reasons include concurrent infection, water loss in the body, or excessive fatigue in normal times. For this disease, everyone must treat the cause.

1 People with existing renal insufficiency, if they have concurrent infections, including colds, pneumonia, intestinal infections, urinary tract infections, etc., may experience elevated blood creatinine in a short period of time.

2 Water loss in the body, such as fever, sweating, reduced water intake, polyuria leading to blood concentration, reduced renal blood flow, and increased blood creatinine.

3 Patients with existing kidney disease who use drugs that damage the kidneys may experience elevated blood creatinine, which may even be irreversible.

4 Patients with existing kidney disease may experience oliguria or even anuria due to relapse of the disease, which may be combined with acute renal insufficiency and lead to increased blood creatinine.

5 Fatigue, lack of rest and inattention to life details can also cause a transient increase in blood creatinine.

6. Existing hypertension, uncontrolled blood pressure, and long-term moderate to heavy proteinuria (total urine protein in 24 hours greater than 1 gram or even 1.5 grams) can slowly progress to elevated blood creatinine without being noticed.

The above points are the reasons for high blood creatinine. If your blood creatinine is high, you must go to a regular hospital for routine examinations to get a confirmed diagnosis and receive appropriate treatment.
