Can exercise affect my creatinine test results?

Yes, intense physical activity can temporarily raise creatinine levels in the blood due to increased muscle breakdown. If you've engaged in strenuous exercise before your test, it could result in higher-than-normal creatinine levels, potentially leading to misleading results. To avoid this, it’s recommended to refrain from intense exercise for at least 24 hours before your test. Your doctor can provide specific guidance based on your health and activity levels.
