Uric acid levels increased.
Hello doctor,
I had been experiencing pain in finger joints, knees and feet since 1 year.
I am physically quite active and have a moderate built.
The pain increases when at rest/ sitting position for long and is comparatively less when active.
It's the worst in the morning.
I had consulted orthopedician for the same. He advised few blood tests. ( On examination there was no swelling)
The uric acid levels are slightly elevated. It's 6.7.
Is it concerning?
What steps should i take next?

Uric acid is not that much high. You may require some special exercise and precautions. And require assessment of your lab values.
