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'm dealing with CKD and my creatinine levels have gone up from 2.4 to 2.8 recently. I'm really worried about what this means and what I can do to manage it. Plus, for the past few days, I've been having this really annoying itching all over my body. It's driving me nuts. Do you have any ideas on what's going on or what might help? I'm really looking for some advice.
Height is largely determined by genetics, but lifestyle factors can influence growth during adolescence and early adulthood. To promote natural growth: 1. *Proper Nutrition*: Ensure adequate calcium, vitamin D, and protein intake. 2. *Exercise Regularly*: Engage in activities that promote growth, such as swimming, cycling, and stretching. 3. *Maintain Good Posture*: Proper posture can make you appear taller. 4. *Get Enough Sleep*: Adequate sleep (7-9 hours) helps regulate growth hormones. 5. *Manage Stress*: High stress levels can negatively impact growth. Consider consulting a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian to create a personalized growth-promoting plan. Keep in mind that after a certain age (usually around 18-25), growth plates close, and significant height increases are unlikely.

I've been having some kidney issues and though I'm not sure exactly what's going on, my doctor mentioned theres a problem. I'm thinking about adding flax seeds to my diet. Are they safe for anyone dealing with kidney problems? I'm really curious to know more.
Your symptoms suggest Phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. Consult a urologist or dermatologist for proper evaluation and diagnosis. Treatment options may include topical steroid creams, manual stretching exercises, or surgical procedures. Your doctor will recommend the best course of treatment based on the severity of your condition. In the meantime, avoid forcing the foreskin back, as this can cause further irritation and pain. Seek medical attention to alleviate your symptoms and prevent potential complications.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been on dialysis for 10 years and was recently admitted to the hospital with a really bad lung infection. They tried some antibiotics like merotac and mucinac but those didnt seem to work. Then they sent his sputum culture to Hinduja hospital, and once they figured out the bacteria, they switched up his treatment. He was on Mikacin and Zonamax for a bit, and then they put him on Altitpod CV 200. He's doing a bit better now but his cough hasn't improved at all, and he still needs oxygen when he feels tired after walking a bit at home. I'm just wondering if you think the treatment he's getting is right and if there's anything we can do to help with his cough. Any advice you could offer would be great.
