Hi doc.I am so disturb of my condition about my swollen big toe. I suspect that its a gout thing and so I went to a diagnostic center to have my uric acid test and also for a urinalysis. I just received the result today but my result for uric acid is 5.35, and its very normal! I am quite alarmed with my urinalysis result because of some trace of Protein. My Pus Cells is 2-6/HPF and my RBC is 1-3/HPF.My Epith Cells and Bacteria are few. Is there any reason for me to get upset doc? The pain in my big toe is quite bothersome for me because for sure this is not normal doc. Please help and give me some advice. Thank you.
Hello Amos, since your uric acid levels are within the normal range, it is very important to see whether the pain in your big toe is because of corn or wearing tight shoes...I would advise you to wear slippers for some time.and if it is corn then go to a surgeon for its removal. As for your urine report shows infection....it is important that you Chat Doctor.  Hope you get well soon
