Hi,
If stool stick to bowel than steatorrhea should be ruled out.
For that routine stool analysis is advisable along with fat estimation in the stool sample.
If any positive finding than treated accordingly.
It is not related to elevated uric acid.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
