Test Necessity
The uric acid test will be prescribed if the doctor suspects kidney stones or gouty arthritis.
The kidney stones symptoms are:
- Painful urination
- Frequent urination
- Blood in the urine
- Foul smelling urine
- Backache
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Cloudy urine
- Abdominal or groin pain
In some cases, some symptoms of high uric acid caused by gout are:
- Swelling around the toes, ankles, and knees
- Joint ache in the toes, ankles, knees
- Reduced range of motion
- Reddish skin around the joints
Cancer treatments like chemotherapy can release high amounts of purine in the blood, increasing the uric acid levels. In this situation, it becomes important to monitor uric acid levels on a frequent basis.
Test Preparation
The uric acid test is a simple blood test and it is not required to fast before this test. Some medicines like ibuprofen and aspirin, and alcohol consumption, can alter the test results. It is best to discuss the same with the doctor before doing the uric acid test.
During the Uric Acid Test
Once the uric acid test has been booked with PharmEasy Labs, a phlebotomist will be assigned who will come at the location at the specified date and time. They collect the blood sample using sterilised needles and gloves, from a vein in the forearm. To locate the best vein to draw blood from, they use a vein finder device.
