I'm dealing with really high uric acid levels and it's giving me joint pain all over. I'm considering taking Febgood 40 on a regular basis to help bring my uric acid levels down. Is that a good idea? Would it be safe to use it like that?

View allI'm really concerned about my mom's ESR test results. It came back at 85, and I know that's above the normal range of 020. Even though we had a CECT done on her chest and abdomen, which came back clear, I'm worried about what might be causing her high ESR. She's dealing with mild arthritis and osteoporosis too. Could you help explain what might be going on, and suggest if we need to do any other tests?
A high ESR value can indicate inflammation in the body. Given your mother's history of mild arthritis and osteoporosis, the high ESR value could be related to these conditions. However, other possible reasons for a high ESR value include infections, certain autoimmune diseases, and some types of cancer. In this case, considering her symptoms and medical history, it would be advisable to consult with a Rheumatologist for further evaluation.

My mom has ortho arthritis and the doctor mentioned injections as an alternative to knee replacement. Are these injections actually effective and do they come with any side effects? I'm worried about how safe they are for her.
Injections like corticosteroid and hyaluronic acid (HA) injections can be effective alternatives to knee replacement for some individuals with osteoarthritis, providing temporary pain relief and potentially delaying the need for surgery. However, they may not be a long-term solution, and side effects can occur, particularly with repeated injections.

I'm having a lot of pain in my right foot, and it turns out my uric acid level is at 8.6. I'm worried because it seems to be causing the pain. What are some ways I can lower my uric acid levels and manage this discomfort better?
To control uric acid levels and manage the pain in your right foot, you can start by making some lifestyle changes. Avoid foods high in purines such as red meat, organ meats, and certain types of seafood. Drink plenty of water to help flush out uric acid from your body. Additionally, your doctor may prescribe medication such as Allopurinol at a dosage of 100-300mg daily to help lower uric acid levels. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations closely and attend follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.
