Rheumatologist,  's  Response
hi, it might all related to CKD. these are all signs and symptoms due to azotemia which means increase in urea and cretinine. uric acid level is generally elevated in CKD patient since kidneys fail to excreate it. treatment, now adays is only given if it is symptomatic hyperuricemia, i.e. you have typical joint pains and swelling.
