Question 1

I'm a bit worried about my recent kidney function blood test results. I had it done yesterday, and I saw that my serum creatinine is 0.9 mgdl, BUN is at 10.16 mgdl, uric acid level is 2.7 mgdl, and calcium is 9.34 mgdl. What's got me concerned is that the uric acid level is below the normal range. Is this something I should be worried about or get treated? By the way, I only have my right kidney because I had a nephrectomy on my left kidney at birth. Any advice would be appreciated.

Question 3

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.

Accepted Answer

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.
