Question 1

My elder sister has high ESR 56 and serum uric acid 6.09. She has pain in her bones and is feeling very uneasy as if something is suffocating her. She is normally a strong person but I heard her cry so I can understand she is having a lot of difficulty. Can someone please suggest what should we do? In this corona time how can we get her treated? I have attached her blood report for reference. Thank you in advance for your guidance.

Question 2

I previously had intense pain in my legs and joints. After consulting a doctor, I was diagnosed with high uric acid (7). I took medicines regularly for a month and repeated the test today, the result is 6.1, but I understand it should be below 6. Could you please suggest what medicines may be needed and what foods should be included or avoided to help maintain uric acid levels? The patient is also taking medicines for diabetes.

Question 3

Hi, my mother is 56 years old and experiences frequent pain in the ankle area. I consulted the Sathvik Spine Foundation in Jayanagar, Bangalore, and Dr. Yogesh suggested consulting a rheumatologist to provide medication as the blood test report shows high uric acid content. What should we do?

ASO suggests recent streptococcal infection. Uric acid is borderline. Start lifestyle changes and repeat Uric Acid after 1 month. Also check CRP and ESR for inflammation.
