High uric acid needs to be seen in rheumatology because hyperuricemia and its associated gout is a metabolic rheumatism. In some hospitals that do not have a separate rheumatology department, it is possible to be seen in the endocrinology or nephrology departments. Hyperuricemia is usually defined as a blood uric acid level greater than 420 μmol/L. Clinically, not all patients with hyperuricemia will develop gout, but only about 5%-15% of patients will progress to gout. Gout is a disease caused by disorders of purine metabolism resulting in high blood uric acid concentration, which can manifest clinically as hyperuricemia, acute gouty arthritis, chronic arthritis, gouty stone formation and gouty nephropathy, and can also be accompanied by some complications of hyperlipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, etc.
