Kidney
Urate deposition in the kidneys can lead to chronic kidney disease, which can affect uric acid excretion and worsen high uric acid levels. Recurrent gout attacks and the use of anti-inflammatory painkillers can also cause drug-induced kidney damage.
Reproductive organs
High uric acid can cause poor blood circulation, which can cause constriction of the genital arteries and affect sexual function.
High uric acid can also affect nerve function and impair genital response.
Brain
Hyperuricemia is significantly associated with stroke morbidity and mortality.
Cardiovascular
Serum uric acid is an independent risk factor for hypertension. For each 59.5 mmol/L increase in uric acid, the relative risk of hypertension increases by 25%.
Therefore, for people with high uric acid levels and gout patients, a meal can trigger an acute gout attack.
Drinking water can directly promote the excretion of uric acid, improve the deposition of uric acid crystals and the appearance of tophi.
