About Serum Uric Acid Test

Why is the serum uric acid test done?

Uric acid is formed due to the breaking down of purines present in the food consumed. The natural process of cellular breakdown also releases purines. These are broken down in the kidney. Normally, uric acid is passed out of the body via excretion. When the body contains more amount of uric acid when compared to the normal amount, the condition is known as Hyperuricemia.

While a slight amount of uric acid being present in the blood system is normal, the uric acid test in Jalandhar is done when doctors suspect the person is suffering from kidney functioning failure or gout.

A doctor suggests a uric acid serum test when the patient shows these symptoms:

  • Dark orange-colored urine
  • Presence of blood in the urine
  • Constant back pain
  • Pain felt when urinating
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Pain felt in the groin, sides, and abdomen
  • Swelling of joints
  • Urge to frequently urinate
What does the serum uric acid test measure?

The uric acid test in Jalandhar prescribed by doctors measures the amount of uric acid present in the patient’s blood system. Both high and low values are harmful. While the high concentration of uric acid in blood indicates issues with the kidneys or the development of gout, low concentration indicates endothelial dysfunction.

People undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy have a high amount of uric acid in their system. They need to be under routine uric acid testing to keep the levels under control. The higher concentration of uric acid in the blood is often an indication of the following diseases:

  • Diabetes
  • Renal failure
  • Gout is a form of arthritis that causes swelling of the joints and limits movement
  • Kidney stones
  • Leukemia or blood cancer
  • Multiple myeloma

A high diet of food rich in purines also causes the uric acid to be present in the blood system. These foods include: liver, anchovies, wine or beer, dried beans, etc.

Potential risks/side effects associated with the uric acid test

There are no serious side effects of the serum uric acid test in Jalandhar. While there are no certain prerequisites required when collecting samples, doctors who prescribe the test can advise the patient to observe a fast of at least 4 hours and to cut off the medications that can affect the test results. When looking for “uric acid test near me”, do check that the lab technicians who are coming to collect the samples are well-equipped and knowledgeable about the proper way of drawing blood.

That said, some people might experience the following side effects:

  • Bruising of the the skin area from where blood is drawn
  • Itching
  • Swelling and limitation of the movement of the arm

THINGS TO KNOW AFTER GETTING TESTED

Interpreting the Serum Uric Acid test results

Nowadays, a uric acid test at home is possible. Once the test is conducted by the lab technicians and the results are delivered, the doctor receives the result to conclude the diagnosis and begin treatment, if required. Apart from diseases, certain medications like aspirin, ibuprofen, or vitamin C can affect the uric acid concentration in the body.

The levels of uric acid vary in men and women. Ideally, in men, the uric acid level ranges between 2.5 mg/dl to 7.0 mg/dl. In women, the normal range is between 1.5 mg/dl to 6.0 mg/dl. If the lab results show a higher amount of uric acid to be present in the system, it means that the person might suffer from gout or kidney failure. Low levels indicate Wilson’s disease or diseases of the central nervous system.

Ms Sujata arrived on time and was very polite and caring throughout the process. Actually there was a mistake on my part where I couldn't attend her calls because I was not well and i feel asleep bcoz of my medicines. I had scheduled an appointment for my mother but Ms Sujata somehow reached my address by asking my neighbours. Such a lovely girl, and also the collection process was really smooth. Would absolutely recommend everyone to check out their services
