Can uric acid normal form gout stone?

summary

When we talk about gout stone, we must pay attention to it when we treat it with medicine. We often "talk about the color change of stone". Then let's take a look at whether normal uric acid can form gout stone? What about it?

Can uric acid normal form gout stone?

First: Gout stone, also known as gout nodule, is a white crystal precipitated in a certain part of the body due to excessive elevation of blood uric acid, exceeding its saturation, just as white sediment will appear at the bottom of a cup of salt water when the amount of salt in a cup exceeds a certain limit. In addition to the central nervous system, gout stones can be formed in almost all tissues of gout patients.

Second, the number and size of gout stone is an intuitive index to reflect the severity and duration of gout. Gout is larger, the number is more, indicating a longer course of disease, poor control of the disease, otherwise it means a shorter course of disease, the disease is relatively light. Modern studies have shown that the formation of typical gout stone is related to the following factors: early onset age, long-term persistent disease, early attack, improper treatment, frequent attack and significantly increased serum uric acid level. Therefore, for patients with gout, the longer the illness, the more chance of gout stone. If the frequency of gout attack is more frequent, then the occurrence of gout stone will increase accordingly. On the contrary, if the course of disease is long, but the frequency of attack is less, and the interval of gout is as long as several years or even decades, it is not easy to have gout stone. Therefore, the purpose of modern treatment is to prevent excessive urate deposition, damage caused by gout stone and connective tissue reaction.

Third: Generally speaking, for the first occurrence of small gout stone, after giving active treatment, gout stone can be completely absorbed and subsided. If the gout stone lasts for more than 3 months, it is less likely to subside. The larger the gout stone, the longer the duration and the more the number, the less likely it will disappear. This is because the uric acid crystals deposited in the nodules of gout stones with short formation time are not much and can be absorbed. If active treatment is given, the uric acid in the nodules can be inhaled into the blood and then discharged from the kidney. It is very difficult for the long-term existence of gout stone, especially the large one, to make it subside.

matters needing attention

Alkalized urine is beneficial to the dissolution and excretion of urate, especially for the prevention of uric acid renal calculi and gouty nephropathy. Can eat alkaline food more, but this often is not valued by people.
