Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Increased creatinine in urine can be due to increased muscle mass.
2. Protein can also be present in urine due to exercise, increased meat intake etc
3. Yes, you can workout with weights. It is not a problem.
4. Maintain a good protein diet.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
