Hello,
I have gone through your query and understand your cocnerns.
Creatinine level you have mentioned is very high and he needs dialysis to get it down. As there is hydronephrosis you need to know the cause as if there is renal stone or any obstruction then you will have hydronephrosis and because of that until the obstruction is not removed the creatinine levels will be high. In most of the cases after the removal of ostruction the levels come down but in some cases they wont as if kidney is damaged once we cannot get that back but we can prevent further damage.If you dont take any treatment it will damage the kidney further so dialysis is the best option to remove toxins from the body. Hope this answers your query. Get back if you have more.

Dr.Alekhya.
