A member asked:
My athritis swelling, is this mean the creatinine are high?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessarily. : Blood creatinine levels are used to measure kidney function. Some arthritic conditions could affect kidneys but not all conditions do. If you have a question about your creatinine level or kidneys, your doctor can send a simple blood test. If you do have arthritis and kidney disease, please be careful of what pain medicines you take. Some can cause kidney injury.
