Is drinking hot water good for kidneys?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Drinking warm water daily in the morning flushes/clears out the kidney toxins and fat deposit in the intestine through the urinary region.

Hydration: Drinking hot water is generally safe and can be soothing, but it does not have a direct proven benefit specifically for kidney health. Staying well-hydrated is important for kidney function, so drinking enough fluids—whether warm or cold—is key.
-
Temperature of Water: The temperature (hot or cold) does not significantly impact kidney health.
-
Other Factors: Maintaining a balanced diet, controlling blood pressure, and managing blood sugar are more critical for kidney health.
If there are any existing kidney issues or concerns, it’s best to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice. Overall, drinking warm water can be part of a healthy hydration routine but is not a specific treatment for kidney health.

View allI've been diagnosed with albumin in my urine, and I also have diabetes and high blood pressure. My blood urea and creatinine levels are at 1.2 and 40, respectively. Are these levels risky, and what steps should I take next?
In conclusion, albumin in urine is an early sign that should not be ignored, especially if you're already dealing with diabetes and high blood pressure. However, since your kidney function tests are still normal, this is a good sign, and with proper management, the risk of kidney damage can be minimized.

I'm a patient of Dr. K C Kedia and I've been having some trouble reaching him. I've got a few issues going onmy creatinine level is at 3.56, I'm diabetic, and I have COPD. Lately, I've been having a hard time breathing because of a persistent cough. I've tried using Duolin and Budecort nebulizers twice, but they haven't really helped. Plus, my legs and hands have started swelling up. I'm taking Dytor 10 in the morning and 5 in the evening for that. I'm wondering if there's any antibiotic medicine you could recommend that might bring me some relief? Also, my doctor vaccinated me for influenza pneumonia.
need hospitalization and check creatinine level again and proceed

I'm currently on dialysis because my serum creatinine level is 8. I'm worried about my heart too since I've got an issue with my ejection fraction. Are there any meds or treatments that could help both my kidneys and heart? I'm also curious if there are any Ayurvedic options I could consider for renal and heart failure. Any tips or references would be really helpful!
For the treatment of heart failure and to improve ejection fraction, medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril or Lisinopril, beta-blockers like Carvedilol or Metoprolol, and aldosterone antagonists like Spironolactone can be beneficial. In addition, medications like Diuretics such as Furosemide may be prescribed to help reduce fluid buildup in the body. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for the appropriate dosage and monitoring. As for Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of renal and heart failure, it is important to note that Ayurvedic treatments should be used with caution and under the guidance of a qualified practitioner. Some Ayurvedic herbs that are traditionally used for renal health include Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa) and Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris). For heart health, Arjuna (Terminalia arjuna) is commonly used in Ayurveda. However, please consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for the proper formulation and dosage tailored to your specific condition.
