Whether or not uric acid fluctuates during the lysis phase is related to the amount of uric acid released during lysis. If more uric acid is released, then fluctuations are likely to occur, and vice versa is unlikely to affect fluctuations in uric acid, which varies from person to person.
Crystallization refers to the process of re-dissolving urate crystals that have been deposited in the body of a gout sufferer into the blood circulation. During this process, uric acid levels may fluctuate. The dissolved uric acid will return to the bloodstream in a free state, which may result in higher uric acid levels if the amount of uric acid released from the lysed crystals is high.
However, the lysis phase is a slow process, mostly taking more than six months. If the amount of lysed crystals is relatively small, then it is less likely to have an effect on the fluctuation of uric acid.
In normal times, patients should maintain a healthy diet, quit smoking and drinking in a timely manner, eat less food with high purine content, such as oysters, etc., and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as tomatoes, cabbage, etc., as well as drink more water to promote the excretion of uric acid.
It is recommended that patients with gout should consult the rheumatology and immunology department in a timely manner, under the guidance of the doctor for standardized treatment and regular follow-up.
