August 03, 2017
An update on the condition of veteran Bollywood actor Dilip Kumar, who admitted to Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital yesterday. ANI quoting hospital sources said the creatinine level in Dilip Kumar's blood was rising. Creatinine is an indicator of kidney function. The 94-year-old actor was admitted on account of dehydration and urinary tract infection.
Ravishankar, CEO of the facility at Bandra West, told news agency IANS yesterday, that the actor was admitted with dehydration, but his condition was stable.
Dilip Kumar is completely stable and the only major issue was
dehydration. Since dehydration also affects kidney and other organs
momentarily he suffered minor urinary issues, otherwise, there is no
major complication, said doctors from the hospital.
The veteran actor
was shifted from ICU to a room after his condition was stable. But the
doctors treating him also said that he will once again be shifted to the
ICU for medication.
