What Is a Uric Acid Test?
A uric acid test (serum uric acid) measures the amount of uric acid in your blood. Uric acid is a natural waste product formed when the body breaks down purines — compounds found in many foods and in the body's own cells. Normally, uric acid dissolves in the blood, passes through the kidneys and is excreted in urine.
When the body produces too much uric acid or the kidneys excrete too little, uric acid builds up in the blood — a condition called hyperuricaemia. Persistently high uric acid causes needle-like uric acid crystals to form in joints (causing gout) or in the kidneys (causing kidney stones).
Gout is increasingly common in India — affecting an estimated 0.5–1% of the adult population. High-purine diets, increasing alcohol consumption and rising rates of kidney disease all contribute. The uric acid test at just ₹149 can detect hyperuricaemia years before a gout attack occurs.
Normal Uric Acid Levels — Reference Ranges
| Group | Normal Range | High (Hyperuricaemia) | Low (Hypouricaemia) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Men | 3.5 – 7.2 mg/dL | Above 7.2 mg/dL | Below 2.0 mg/dL |
| Women | 2.6 – 6.0 mg/dL | Above 6.0 mg/dL | Below 1.5 mg/dL |
| Children | 2.0 – 5.5 mg/dL | Above 5.5 mg/dL | Below 1.5 mg/dL |
Reference ranges may vary between laboratories. Always discuss results with your doctor. High uric acid with no symptoms (asymptomatic hyperuricaemia) may not always require medication — your doctor will advise.
Symptoms of High Uric Acid (Hyperuricaemia)
Many people with high uric acid have no symptoms for months or years. When symptoms appear, they typically indicate gout or kidney stone formation:
Sudden Joint Pain
Intense, sudden pain — most often the big toe, ankle, knee or wrist. Worst in the first 24 hours.
Joint Swelling
Affected joint becomes swollen, red, warm and extremely tender to touch during a gout attack.
Recurrent Gout Attacks
Without treatment, gout attacks recur more frequently and last longer, damaging joints permanently.
Kidney Stones
Severe back or side pain, blood in urine, nausea — signs of uric acid kidney stones.
Tophi
Hard, chalky lumps under the skin near joints — uric acid crystal deposits from chronic gout.
Joint Stiffness
Reduced range of motion and stiffness in affected joints after repeated gout attacks.
Who Needs a Uric Acid Test at Home in Nashik?
- Anyone who has had a gout attack — confirm diagnosis and monitor treatment
- People with recurring joint pain in big toe, ankle or knee — rule out gout
- Patients with kidney stones — check if uric acid is the cause
- People following a high-purine diet — red meat, seafood, alcohol regularly
- Patients taking diuretics or aspirin — both can raise uric acid levels
- Patients with kidney disease — impaired kidneys reduce uric acid excretion
- Patients with hypertension — high uric acid is common with BP medication use
- Patients with diabetes or metabolic syndrome — uric acid often elevated
- Cancer patients on chemotherapy — tumour lysis can cause rapid uric acid rise
- Anyone requiring a general health check — included in full body checkup panels
Causes of High Uric Acid in India
- Diet high in purines — red meat, organ meats, mutton, shellfish, sardines, anchovies
- Alcohol — especially beer and spirits; alcohol reduces uric acid excretion and increases production
- Sugary drinks — fructose-sweetened beverages significantly raise uric acid
- Dehydration — insufficient water intake concentrates uric acid in blood
- Kidney disease — reduced ability to excrete uric acid
- Medications — diuretics (water tablets), low-dose aspirin, some BP medicines
- Obesity — excess body weight increases uric acid production
- Hypothyroidism — low thyroid function impairs uric acid excretion
- Genetics — family history of gout significantly raises risk
Diet for High Uric Acid — What to Eat and Avoid
🚫 Foods to Avoid (High Purine)
- Red meat — mutton, beef, pork
- Organ meats — liver, kidney, brain
- Seafood — prawns, crabs, sardines
- Beer and spirits (all alcohol)
- Sugary cold drinks & fruit juices
- Excessive dal & pulses
- Spinach, mushrooms (in large qty)
✅ Foods to Include (Low Purine)
- Plenty of plain water (3+ litres/day)
- Low-fat milk and curd
- Eggs (in moderation)
- Fruits — especially cherries, citrus
- Vegetables (except high-purine ones)
- Whole grains and complex carbs
- Coffee (moderate — reduces gout risk)
