Hyperuricemia<\/h2>\n<div class=\"flex_box\" style=\"align-items: center;\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">\n                    Hyperuricemia refers to a condition in which the concentration of uric acid in the blood is abnormally high. Uric acid is a waste product formed when substances called purines\u2014found naturally in the body and in certain foods\u2014are broken down. Normally, uric acid is filtered by the kidneys and excreted in the urine.\n                <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"img\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img-5.webp\" alt=\"What is Hyperuricemia\" class=\"\">\n            <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"text\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">However, when the body produces too much uric acid or the kidneys fail to eliminate it efficiently, uric acid accumulates in the bloodstream, leading to elevated levels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"height: 16px;\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">Many people have no symptoms at first, but if left untreated, uric acid crystals can deposit in the joints, causing inflammation and painful gout attacks. Because hyperuricemia can also affect the kidneys and blood vessels, early lifestyle modification and appropriate treatment are important.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"diagnosis\">\n<h2 class=\"ttl-green\">Diagnosis of Hyperuricemia<\/h2>\n<div class=\"flex_box\" style=\"align-items: center;\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">\n                    Hyperuricemia is diagnosed when a blood test shows a serum uric acid level of 7.0 mg\/dL or higher. Since uric acid levels can fluctuate temporarily, confirmation with multiple tests is recommended.\n                <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"img\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img-7.webp\" alt=\"Diagnosis of Hyperuricemia\" class=\"\">\n            <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"text_margin\">Once the level exceeds 7.0 mg\/dL, uric acid becomes less soluble in the blood and tends to crystallize and deposit in the joints or kidneys. <\/p>\n<p style=\"height: 16px;\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">When hyperuricemia is accompanied by gout attacks or urinary stones, it is called symptomatic hyperuricemia, whereas persistently elevated uric acid levels without symptoms are referred to as asymptomatic hyperuricemia.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"complications\">\n<h2 class=\"ttl-green\">Complications Associated with Hyperuricemia<\/h2>\n<div class=\"flex_box\" style=\"align-items: center;\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">\n                    If left untreated, uric acid crystals can accumulate in the joints, kidneys, and blood vessels, leading to various complications. <\/p>\n<p>                    The most well-known is the gout attack, in which crystals deposit in the joints and cause inflammation\u2014typically affecting the base of the big toe\u2014resulting in redness, swelling, and intense pain. Recurrent attacks can lead to joint deformity or the formation of nodules called tophi.\n                <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"img\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img-3.webp\" alt=\"Complications Associated with Hyperuricemia\"\n                    class=\"\">\n            <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"text\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">Uric acid buildup also stresses the kidneys, contributing to urinary stones or uric acid nephropathy. In recent years, hyperuricemia has been recognized as one of the major lifestyle-related diseases, alongside hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes. Excess uric acid can damage the endothelium of blood vessels, promoting arteriosclerosis and renal dysfunction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"height: 16px;\">\n<p class=\"text_margin\">Therefore, management should include not only medication to control uric acid levels but also comprehensive lifestyle changes\u2014such as maintaining a healthy weight, limiting alcohol intake, drinking adequate water, and reducing purine-rich foods.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"online\" class=\"bg-green\">\n<h2 class=\"ttl-green\">Can It Be Managed Online?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"gp-white\">\n<div class=\"ttl-flex single\">\n<div class=\"icon\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/face-to-facce.webp\"\n                        alt=\"Because hyperuricemia requires regular blood testing to monitor uric acid levels, in-person visits are generally necessary.\"><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\">Because hyperuricemia requires regular blood testing to monitor uric acid levels, in-person visits are generally necessary.<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"yoyaku\" id=\"reserve\">\n<div class=\"title\">Click here to make an appointment<\/div>\n<div class=\"flex\">\n<div class=\"box\">\n<div class=\"text\"><span>\\<\/span>For After-Hours Matters, Please Click Here!<span>\/<\/span><\/div>\n<p>            <a href=\"https:\/\/lin.ee\/GqpB0x1\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"line_btn\">\n                Make an appointment via Whatsapp\n            <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"box\">\n<div class=\"text\"><span>\\<\/span>For Urgent Matters During Clinic Hours, Please Click Here!<span>\/<span><\/div>\n<p>            <a href=\"tel:+62 21 8665 6830\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"tel_btn\">\n                +62 21 8665 6830\n            <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"parent":94,"menu_order":0,"template":"","acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/opd\/1014"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/opd"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/opd"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/opd\/94"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dymmedicalclinic.id\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
