Brief Answer:
he has early chronic kidney disease.
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
I think your father has a early kidney disease. we need to evaluate why creatinine is rising. we should see some basic tests like-
urine routine to rule out urine infection
Ultrasound KUB with post void residue
complete KFT.
spot urine protein creatinine ratio.
telmisatan being used as blood pressure medicine can also be contributing to raised serum creatinine.
after these reports your treating nephrologist can modify your prescription to keep creatinine in check.
if you don't have a nephrologist there or you can come down to XXXXXXX you can meet me ( call 0000, 0000 for appointment).
meanwhile try to stop any nonveg intake, stop any painkillers if being used by the patient.
keep blood pressure below 130/90
best wishes
