Question 1

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.

Question 2

I have been having pain in my hand and fingers for the last two or three months. My doctor advised me to check R A factor and uric acid. My blood report shows R A factor 80 and uric acid 10. Please guide me on what to do. Is arthritis curable?

Question 3

My aunt is 55 years old and recently her left foot began to swell with pain. She has had this issue before, which was previously caused by raised uric acid levels, but this time her uric acid is not significantly elevated. She is also taking medications for diabetes, high blood pressure, and hypothyroidism. The pain and swelling are not improving with the medicines she previously used, including FURIC 40 for uric acid and Nucoxia 90 for pain and swelling. Her recent thyroid function test results are TSH 2.32 microIU/mL, T3 1.13 nmol/L, and T4 165.80 nmol/L. I am also uploading her lipid profile and uric acid test reports. Kindly review and advise on the possible cause and next steps for treatment.
