I was recently diagnosed with swelling in my lower leg, and my uric acid level is 6.9. How can I reduce the uric acid and swelling?

Asked by Male, 35 ยท 2 days ago

Lower leg swelling with a uric acid level of 6.9 can be due to fluid buildup, mild gout flare, or circulation issues, rather than uric acid alone. Keep the leg elevated when resting and avoid long periods of standing to reduce swelling, and use comfortable footwear with gentle movement to support circulation. Drink enough water throughout the day and keep meals simple, with less salt, red meat, and alcohol, to help control uric acid levels. Stay active with light walking and maintain a healthy weight to improve blood flow. Note whether the swelling is unilateral, painful, or increasing. Consult a doctor to check the exact cause and guide proper care.
