High uric acid levels can occur due to diet, obesity, kidney problems, dehydration, or conditions like gout. Treatment depends on whether you have symptoms such as joint pain, swelling, kidney stones, or repeated gout attacks. Doctors may prescribe medicines like allopurinol or febuxostat to lower uric acid levels, but these should only be started after medical evaluation because the dose depends on your kidney function and overall health. Lifestyle changes are also very important. Drink enough water, reduce red meat and seafood intake, avoid excessive alcohol and sugary drinks, maintain a healthy weight, and exercise regularly. Regular blood tests help monitor improvement and prevent complications.
