Understanding Uric Acid


What is Uric Acid?

This test measures the amount of uric acid in your blood. Uric acid is a nitrogenous compound that is formed as a byproduct of metabolic activities and is eliminated by the kidneys. This test is done to diagnose gout and to check the efficacy of medication that lowers uric acid. Your doctor may advise this test if you have symptoms like pain and swelling in the joints, joints that feel warm when touched, and shiny skin around joints.

 

A high uric acid concentration in blood, also known as hyperuricemia, can lead to crystal formation in joints and also a risk factor of chronic kidney disease. Diet, exercise, and other healthy lifestyle changes can improve your uric acid level. However, medical treatment is also required in most cases.

Interpreting Uric Acid results


Interpretations

Normal uric acid range:

·         Adult Female: 2.4 to 6.0 mg/dL

·         Adult Male: 3.4 to 7.0 mg/dL

·         Children: 2.0 to 5.5 mg/dL

Higher than normal levels of uric acid in the blood is called Hyperuricemia and may be caused due to kidney diseases, gout, chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment.
