Question 2

I'm worried about my health and need some advice. My c-reactive protein is at 6.09 mgL, and my lipoprotein a is 37.04 mgdl. Also, I'm dealing with constant neck and shoulder pain because of cervical spondylitis, and I've noticed my sr creatinine levels are high too. Can you help me understand what these numbers mean and what steps I should take next?

Accepted Answer

Your c reactive protein level of 6.09 mgL indicates inflammation in your body. To reduce inflammation, you can take Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day after meals for pain relief. For your lipoprotein a level of 37.04 mgdl, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily at night to help lower your cholesterol. For your cervical spondylitis and constant neck and shoulder pain, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg three times a day for pain management. Additionally, doing neck exercises and maintaining a good posture can also help alleviate the pain. Since your sr creatinine levels are high, it is important to consult a nephrologist for further evaluation and management. They may recommend medications like Losartan 50mg once daily to help protect your kidneys. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your progress.
