Question

I've been dealing with high uric acid levels and was at around 7.6 a couple of months ago. After starting on zyloric 100 mg tablets daily, it's dropped to 6. But I'm still struggling with a burning sensation in my feet. My uncle, who's a doctor, suggested I try Rejunuron injections, so I took five doses of the 500 mcg injection. Even with that, the burning feeling hasn't gone away. Could you help me understand why this might still be happening and what steps I could take to get rid of this annoying burning in my feet?

Question

I've been having really bad head pain for the last 2 weeks. I got a blood test done, and it shows my ESR level is 72.1. I've attached the blood report here. Can you help me understand why it's so high? What could be the issue here, and which doctor should I talk to for this?

Question

I've been feeling really concerned lately about some joint pain I've been having. I'm 48 years old, and I've started experiencing pain in my knee joints. Along with that, the small joints in my fingers are also hurting and feel pretty stiff in the mornings. I don't have any other health issues right now, but I'm really curious about natural treatments to help manage this pain. Could you give me some advice on what I can do to start addressing this?
