Ive been having pain in my knees and the lower part of my feet, and it seems to happen mostly after sex, but at other times, Im okay. This started after I finished treatment for dengue last year, and its been coming and going ever since. Any idea what might be going on or how I can get some relief?

This could be due to general myalgia from muscle strain. You can opt for physiotherapy exercises for stretching the calf and thigh muscles. Cold compress and muscle relaxants can help alleviate the pain.

View allI've just had my uric acid levels checked, and they're at 9.2. I'm wondering what precautions I should be taking with this? Also, is it okay to take calcium and vitamin supplements given this situation? I'm curious about what positive or negative effects they might have. Plus, my blood pressure is at 10050 is that something to be concerned about?
Follow a healthy diet plan that has mostly vegetables and fruits, whole grains, and low-fat dairy products. Limit sugar-sweetened foods and drinks, especially those that have high fructose corn syrup. Limit alcohol because it can increase uric acid levels in the blood and avoid short term diets for the same reason.Yes, calcium supplements can be taken by people with high uric acid, and calcium may even help lower uric acid levels

My mom is scheduled for knee replacement surgery on Feb 15 at AIIMS and is currently on Folitrax 10mg weekly. Her recent blood report showed platelets around 105,000 could the Folitrax be causing this drop since she took it before the test? Her current meds are Thyronorm 62.5 empty stomach, Pantop D40 morning, Osteofos70 weekly, Uprise 60k weekly, Folitrax weekly, folic acid at night, Shelcal 500mg night, and Etoshine90 night. Should we be concerned about her platelet levels before surgery?
No increase in platelets is not due to folitrax.. It’s due to viscosity of blood..

I'm really worried about my uric acid level being at 9.2. Is that really dangerous for my kidneys? I'm hoping to bring it down naturally. Is it possible to do that without medication, or are meds the only way to go?
