The length of time one can live with creatinine 120 μmol/L needs to be judged in combination with various factors such as the primary cause and age, and cannot be generalized. Whether one can receive TCM treatment and adhere to it for a long time can directly affect the final outcome. Creatinine is a common indicator of kidney function, and the normal creatinine value is 54-106μmoI/L for men and 44-97μmol/L for women. 120μmol/L is mildly high, if it is caused by concentrated body fluid due to strenuous exercise, vomiting, diarrhea, etc., or tubular necrosis due to nephrotoxic drugs. The creatinine can be gradually restored to normal through appropriate rehydration and timely removal of the causative factors, and generally will not affect the life expectancy of the patient. However, if nephrotic syndrome or chronic nephritis leads to renal insufficiency, proteinuria, creatinine gradually increases and glomerular filtration rate decreases, it is necessary to take kidney preservation treatment in time to avoid affecting life expectancy. It is recommended that patients pay attention to rest, drink more water and strictly control salt intake. Usually, you can exercise appropriately according to your own situation.
