For joint pain, gout, kidney-stone risk.
Uric acid is a waste product made when the body breaks down certain foods (red meat, organ meat, alcohol, some seafood). When uric acid builds up in the blood, it can form crystals in joints (causing gout) or in the kidneys (causing stones).
Sudden swelling and severe pain in a big toe, ankle, or knee is the classic sign of gout, and a uric-acid test confirms it. People with a family history of gout or recurring kidney stones often get checked yearly as a precaution.
No fasting needed for most situations, though some doctors prefer it. Avoid heavy meat, seafood, and alcohol for 24 hours before the test.
