Uric Acid and Gout: Overview

Uric acid is a natural waste in human body that is formed when it breaks down the pudding substances in foods such as lean meat, seafood, alcohol and sugar-containing drinks. As we mostly know that Uric acid is always filtered through the kidneys and removed by urinary system.

This can lead gout attack, a form of arthritis where sharp crystals of uric acid build up in the joints, causing pain, swelling and inflammation.

High level of uric acid are often caused by a high lung diet, including lean meat, organ meat and seafood food. Other important causes are drinks containing sugar, especially beer, fructose, obesity, renal dysfunction, and certain drugs such as gout or congestion.


Signs and Symptoms:

Frequent signs of hyper uric acid include sudden, severe pain in joints, which most often affects the toes. The affected joints become swollen and red in color like bruise, warm and very soft. Pain can make joint movement difficult, and in chronic cases, a hard mass of uric acid crystals forms under the skin.

Results if unprocessed:

If high level of uric acid are not properly treated, they can lead to repeated painful attack of gout, permanent joint damage and pain, and the formation of stones in kidney. Over time, the risk of developing chronic kidney disease and heart related problems also increases in human body
