The danger of too rapid a drop in blood uric acid is that it may lead to an acute attack of gout.
Uric acid metabolism is generally in a state of dynamic balance. If the decline is too rapid, the urate crystals deposited in the joints and other locations will be rapidly decomposed to produce microcrystals, which will then irritate the joints and cause an acute attack of gout. With the accumulation of microcrystals, the redness, swelling, heat and pain of the joints will become more and more serious, and in severe cases, impaired mobility will occur.
Uric acid-lowering treatment should not be rushed, but should be gradual and should be administered under the guidance of a doctor. High uric acid patients in daily life should pay attention to diet to reduce the intake of high purine food, drink more water.
People with high blood uric acid are advised to go to the rheumatology and immunology department of regular hospitals and other related departments for detailed consultation.
