[|Human|] my 45 year old daughter has arthritis since having 3 back surgeries for herniated discs. Three or four years ago she developed psoriasis. She is in constant pain, although she continues to work and live a fairly normal life. Recently she has been having pain in both arms from elbow to fingers. Her doctor had her go for x-rays of her fingers and a blood test. Fingers looked ok. She had high (not extremely high) uric acid. She has to return to the doctor sometime soon, What should she do in the meantime to reduce the high uric acid, and to get relief from he pain in her body? Thanks for your help
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor.  As a Urologist, i can understand your anxiety. You should have written her uric acid level also. Uric acid levels above 7,is called hyperglycemia, and needs treatment. Hyperuricemia affecting small joints, is called Gouty arthritis. You should get her 24 hours, urine uric acid checked, to see if it is normal. High urine uric acid levels, is called as hyperuricosuria, which causes stones. So, you should get an ultrasound scandium, to see if stones have formed. For high uric acid levels, Febuxostat is the common treatment given. For pain relief, you can get anti-inflammatory analgesics, from your doctor. Chat Doctor.  Manga.
