Dr. Zhao Xinju
A serum creatinine level of 57 in chronic nephritis is normal. Elevated serum creatinine indicates kidney function impairment. Patients with chronic nephritis should follow a diet low in salt and sodium, and rich in high-quality protein. They should also keep warm, exercise appropriately, and improve immunity to avoid colds and secondary infections. It's important to develop healthy lifestyle habits, avoiding staying up late, long-term excessive alcohol consumption, holding urine, binge eating, smoking, and other unhealthy behaviors.
