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.

My serum uric acid level is 6.3 and I have a history of having a horseshoe kidney. I want to know if there is any issue in the blood report that I have attached.

Sir, I am suffering from high uric acid. My blood test shows a uric acid level of 6.9 mg/dL. Four months ago, I had severe pain in my toe. Now I am experiencing mild pain in my left abdomen. Could you please suggest what I should do?

Knee get swollen repeatedly, doctors effused that fluid every time. Recently effusion were done 15 days before and again swelling appeared. No test report shows any positive result of arthritis, we have done HLA test too. What to do? Father is on medication taking pain killers.
