Kidney Disease (CKD) Treatment Hospital in Himatnagar
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a slow, long-term loss of kidney function, most often caused by diabetes and high blood pressure. It shows up as high creatinine and urea in blood tests, swelling, or protein in the urine – often with no symptoms in the early stages. Early treatment can slow the damage and delay dialysis. At Pluto Hospital, Himatnagar, kidney patients get tests, treatment and dialysis with ICU and 24×7 emergency support.
Understanding the Condition
CKD vs Sudden Kidney Injury
CKD develops over months or years and usually cannot be reversed, but it can be controlled. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a sudden drop in kidney function due to severe infection, dehydration, some medicines or low blood pressure – it often improves with timely hospital treatment. Both are diagnosed with creatinine, urea and urine tests along with sonography. Read more about acute kidney injury.

Common Questions
Kidney Disease FAQs
What is a normal creatinine level?
Usually about 0.6–1.2 mg/dL, depending on age, sex and body size. Your doctor will interpret your report.
Can high creatinine come back to normal?
In sudden kidney injury it often improves with treatment. In CKD, treatment aims to stop it from rising further.
Does every CKD patient need dialysis?
No. Many patients stay stable for years with good sugar and BP control. Dialysis is needed only when the kidneys fail.
Which painkillers are harmful for kidneys?
Regular use of painkillers like ibuprofen and diclofenac can harm kidneys. Take medicines only as advised.
Who should get kidney tests?
People with diabetes, high BP, a family history of kidney disease, or swelling should check creatinine and urine yearly.
