Hello there,
Raised creatine levels can be a consequence of fever itself so they singularly are not a worrying factor. A fever may indicate an undetected underlying infection. Since you did not mention your father's age a urinary tract infection is fairly common in men above 55-60 years of age especially if they have a benign prostate enlargement which happens to men when they are that age. I would advise you to get his urine tested and cultured and/or getting an ultrasound abdomen to evaluate any bladder disturbances.
Thank you for your query,
Dr Arun A
