Doctor: 4 kinds of abnormalities in the body, uric acid may have increased
【Body swelling】
Gout can cause body edema. During an acute attack, gout will cause obvious redness, swelling, heat, and pain in the joints. If it is a chronic gout, it will involve the kidneys, prone to renal insufficiency, and cause facial edema , edema of both lower extremities, and the edema of the ankles may gradually spread upwards, ascites or pleural effusion may appear, and eventually lead to generalized edema.
【foamy urine】
The urine of healthy people is light yellow and clear, sometimes accompanied by a small amount of foam, but if the foam in the urine does not dissipate for a long time, it is likely that the kidney function has been damaged.
If the uric acid content in the human body exceeds the standard, the detoxification function of the kidney will be abnormal, and the function of the renal tubules to filter protein will become dull, which will cause proteinuria.
【Inconvenient walking】
Gout patients will develop gouty arthritis, accumulating to the toes, instep, heel, ankle joints, etc. of the feet, causing obvious joint swelling and pain. At this time, patients often have mobility problems and symptoms of being unable to go to the ground. Some patients also turn into chronic gouty arthritis due to repeated attacks of the disease.
【Abnormal urination】
Gout patients will experience abnormal urination and increased frequency of waking up at night. Two-thirds of uric acid in the body is excreted by the kidneys. Excessive blood uric acid can increase the excretion burden of the kidneys, causing excess uric acid to accumulate in the kidneys, which can easily form kidney stones, which can lead to urinary tract infections, painful urination, abnormal urination and other symptoms.
