Hello Doctor. My uric acid was high in my last test report done a month ago. I am taking Febutas 40 for it. Can I drink lemon water every day? I used to have it, but now I am not sure whether it is good or bad for high uric acid. Please advise. Thanks.

Yes, lemon water is generally safe and may help. It is low in purines and does not increase uric acid. Continue Febutas as prescribed.

I have pain in the ring finger of my left hand, and swelling starts at night and lasts until around noon. My X ray and blood tests came back normal.

My blood report shows uric acid level 7.5. Kindly advise which food along with medicine should I prefer to bring it down to at least 5? Presently taking febutaz 40 once a day. Also report shows vitamin C level 27.
