Strenuous exercise may lead to elevated blood creatinine.
The normal value of blood creatinine is about 53-106μmol/L for men and 44-97μmol/L for women, and the causes of elevated blood creatinine can be divided into physiological and pathological aspects. Physiological causes can be found in strenuous exercise, consumption of large amounts of high protein food, etc. Pathological causes can be found in chronic kidney disease and diabetic nephropathy.
After strenuous exercise, muscle decomposition increases, which may lead to a transient increase in blood creatinine, usually after rest will return to normal, it is recommended that patients should try to avoid strenuous exercise a few days before the blood creatinine test.
Patients with elevated blood creatinine after exercise should go to the hospital in time to see a doctor, under the guidance of a professional physician to clarify the cause and timely treatment.
