High Uric Acid Levels

2024-02-08 08:09:29
My uric acid levels are not coming down even after a strict diet and exercise. I checked it twice over the last month and the reading is 12.8 and 12.4 respectively. (Test date 1 - Jan 6th and Test date 2 - Feb 8th) I want to ask if I should start taking medication, though I'm trying to avoid it. I don't have any type of joint pain or anything. I'm a 34 year old male.
