Is Uric Acid 10 Points Above the Normal Level?

1. Generally, uric acid that is 10 μmol/L higher than the normal value is not serious and can usually be restored to the normal range after active and effective treatment.

2. The normal reference range for uric acid is generally between 250 μmol/L and 420 μmol/L. A uric acid level that is 10 μmol/L higher than the normal value is only slightly elevated and does not constitute a serious condition. Common clinical causes of high uric acid generally include long-term consumption of high-purine foods such as animal internals, seafood, meat broth, and beer, which can lead to elevated uric acid levels. It is also related to purine metabolism disorders in the body. If patients suffer from metabolic diseases such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia, they may also have excessively high uric acid metabolism. High uric acid may also be related to the excretory function of the kidneys, and various factors can lead to elevated uric acid levels.

3. Patients should promptly visit the hospital after falling ill and actively cooperate with doctors for examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment, which can restore uric acid levels to the normal range. Therefore, uric acid that is 10 μmol/L higher than the normal value is generally not serious.
