Patient's question:
A friend of mine recently encountered this issue and was hospitalized for a period of time. I visited him, and he said he was experiencing some pain and had difficulty sleeping at night, which was affecting his condition. Is it gout if the blood uric acid test result is 453?Doctor's answer:
Clinically, hyperuricemia can only be diagnosed when blood uric acid exceeds 390 micromoles per liter. When blood uric acid exceeds 420 micromoles per liter, hyperuricemia is highly definitive. At this point, if certain measures are not taken, it is very easy to lead to the onset of gout. The occurrence of pediatric orthopedic diseases severely affects the patient's health. In addition to timely treatment, patients need to pay more attention to daily care. It is important to protect the affected area, maintain a balanced diet, and avoid or reduce the chances of occurrence.
