The Urate (Uric acid) test is a simple blood test that measures the level of uric acid in your body. Uric acid is a waste product that is produced when your body breaks down certain foods, especially those high in purines. This test is commonly used to diagnose and monitor conditions like gout, a type of arthritis caused by high levels of uric acid in the blood. Gout occurs when uric acid crystals build up in the joints, leading to pain, swelling, and inflammation. By measuring the uric acid levels, this test helps doctors determine if you have gout or if you are at risk of developing it. It can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for gout or other conditions that affect uric acid levels, such as kidney disease or certain medications. If your uric acid levels are too high, your doctor may recommend lifestyle changes, such as reducing your intake of purine-rich foods and increasing your fluid intake. They may also prescribe medications to help lower your uric acid levels and prevent gout attacks. |
