6 warning signs of high uric acid in men after age 30

Minh Anh (Theo The Healthsite) |

When your body accumulates high levels of uric acid, it can increase the uric acid levels in your blood and cause some warning signs to appear in your chest and shoulders.

1. Pain and discomfort in the shoulder

When you enter your 30s and suddenly experience unbearable pain in your shoulders and are unable to move freely, it could be an early warning sign of high uric acid levels in your body.

In particular, if this pain is not caused by an injury, it is very likely that it is due to uric acid crystals in the joint. In that case, you should visit and consult a health care professional.

2. Unexplained feeling of heaviness in the chest

Chest discomfort or tightness can be another sign of high uric acid levels. However, if it is not caused by uric acid, you should not ignore the signs of chest pain or tightness because it can be a warning sign of other health problems.

3. Stiffness

High uric acid levels can also cause stiffness in the joints, especially the shoulder joints. This can interfere with daily activities and reduce the quality of life. Therefore, you should have a health check to determine the cause of this condition so that timely treatment can be initiated.

4. Swollen muscles and shoulders

Swelling in the shoulder and chest area can be a symptom of increased uric acid. If the swelling persists, men in their 30s should see a doctor immediately to find out the cause and have timely treatment.

5. Muscle redness and heat for no apparent reason

The inflammatory response to uric acid crystals can cause the skin in the affected areas to appear redder and hotter than usual, so you should monitor changes in skin color and temperature to address high uric acid problems.

6. Muscle movement becomes limited

Men in their 30s may have limited muscle movement if they have high uric acid levels. This makes it more difficult for them to move and work.

You should seek physical therapy exercises and lifestyle adjustments to avoid affecting muscle movement and reduce discomfort caused by high uric acid levels.
