Lybrate-user, excess uric acid in some patients leads to gouty arthritis. This leads to swelling and pain in various joints. Most often great toe is first involved.

Your medications are correct. Apply ice to the joints. Give rest. Increase water intake. Along with low purine diet. Check your uric acid levels again after 15 days. If they have decreased, you are on correct path. Continue same. You will be normal in a month.
