Suggest Ways To Reduce ASO Level In Blood

Hi,
My husbands age is 35 and his ASO level is 400 units. He is often getting leg cramps and back pain due to sacrolitis. Doctor suggested that ASO level is high and given some pencillin injections and medicines.

Please suggest some ways to reduce ASO level in blood.

Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Looking at your query and report, my opinion is as follows:
1. ASO levels are raised, indicating active streptococcal infection
2. Pencillin treatment will reduce the ASO levels and the levels will become normal in 4-6 weeks.

It only indicates active infection and will reduce after treatment. Nothing to worry.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
