Doctors' responses
✅ Diabetes ✅ High BP ✅ Proteinuria ✅ 1–6 months persistent swelling ✅ Mild pain This is very likely kidney-related fluid retention, not simple lifestyle swelling. Because when protein leaks in urine: → Blood albumin reduces → Fluid shifts into tissues → Swelling in feet (especially ankles) Low salt alone sometimes is not enough. 🔎 First – Important Questions Please check: 1️⃣ Is swelling worse in evening? 2️⃣ When you press your thumb on ankle for 5 seconds, does a dent stay? (pitting edema) 3️⃣ What is your latest: Creatinine value? eGFR? Urine protein report? These matter more than exercises. ⚠️ Why It’s Not Improving Possible reasons: Kidney filtration slightly reduced Albumin low BP not fully controlled Need adjustment of diuretic dose Long-standing diabetes causing nephropathy This is medical, not cosmetic swelling. 🚨 When to See Doctor Urgently Go immediately if: Swelling increases suddenly Face or eyelid swelling Urine decreases Breathlessness Weight increases >1 kg in 2–3 days 🩺 What You Should Ask Your Doctor Ask specifically: ✔ Do I need a mild diuretic? ✔ What is my serum albumin level? ✔ Is my BP medication kidney-protective (like ARB/ACE inhibitor)? ✔ Is my sugar tightly controlled? Sometimes small medication adjustment solves it. 🌿 Supportive Measures (Safe With Kidney Condition) ✔ Elevate legs above heart level 20 min, 3 times/day ✔ Walk gently (not excessive) ✔ Avoid standing long time ✔ Avoid tight socks ✔ Monitor weight daily ✔ Strict diabetes control ✔ Strict BP control ❌ Avoid Without Supervision Strong Ayurvedic diuretics like Punarnava on your own Herbal decoctions Excess fluid intake OTC “water tablets” Kidney patients must be very careful.
Thanks for giving good advice, I started taking zyrex creatinine reducer tonic last 3 months as my creatinine was 1.8 but now reduced to 1.4, also taking patanjali madhunashinivati and muktavati, any comments
Pl reply to my query above, already paid
1️⃣ About Creatinine 1.8 → 1.4 A drop from 1.8 to 1.4 is good. But remember: Creatinine can fluctuate due to: Hydration level Lab variation Blood sugar control BP control Protein intake So improvement is good — but we must confirm it is stable over time. More important than creatinine alone is: 👉 eGFR 👉 Urine protein level 👉 Trend over 6 months 2️⃣ About Zyrex Creatinine Reducer Tonic These kinds of tonics usually contain: Punarnava Gokshura Varun Other diuretic herbs They may help reduce fluid overload. But very important: They do NOT “cure” kidney damage. They only support function. If creatinine improved, good — but continue monitoring every 2–3 months. 3️⃣ About Patanjali Madhunashini Vati This is for diabetes. It contains multiple herbs that: Reduce blood sugar Stimulate pancreas Improve insulin sensitivity ⚠ Important: If you are already on allopathic diabetes medicines, this can: Cause low sugar Affect kidney load Sugar must be monitored regularly. 4️⃣ About Muktavati (for BP) This is a BP-lowering herbal formulation. If you are already on BP tablets: 👉 Combining both can drop BP too much 👉 Low BP can reduce kidney blood flow 👉 That can worsen kidney function This is very important. 🚨 Main Concern You are taking: ✔ Creatinine tonic ✔ Herbal diabetes medicine ✔ Herbal BP medicine Possibly allopathic medicines This combination needs supervision. Kidneys do not like: Over-medication BP fluctuations Sugar fluctuations.
