Even when you are resting, your body is constantly working, and producing energy for the proper working of all parts of the body. Typically, the food we eat is used for this energy production, and the unused or undigested parts are ‘excreted’ out of the body via urine and stool. Uric acid is the final waste product of purine (a type of protein) metabolism; it is the function of the kidneys to filter it out. A uric acid serum test reflects the uric acid content in your blood. As a result, any deviation from the uric acid normal range can be an indication of various medical conditions like dehydration, kidney disease, heart disease, cancer, etc.
The state of increased uric acid levels in the blood is called hyperuricemia. Usually, physicians associate an increase in serum uric acid with gout. This condition involves swelling of joints such as the knee, ankle, toes, and fingers. High uric acid levels can also result from cancer chemotherapy.
A uric acid test report compares the actual levels of uric acid in your blood with the reference uric acid normal value. To ensure accurate and reliable uric acid test report, you can opt for Apollo 24|7. At Apollo 24|7, you can check for uric acid test price and find out everything related to the test. The uric acid test price offered by Apollo 24|7 is quite reasonable.
