Gout due to impairment of renal function - what does this mean

Gout due to impairment of renal function occurs when the kidneys are unable to adequately filter and excrete uric acid, resulting in an accumulation of uric acid in the bloodstream. this leads to an increased risk of gout, a condition characterized by painful inflammation in the joints.

What happens during the disease - gout due to impairment of renal function

Gout is caused by a buildup of uric acid in the bloodstream, which is usually due to impaired renal function. when the kidneys are not able to effectively clear the uric acid from the body, it accumulates and is deposited in the form of crystals in the joints, leading to inflammation and pain. additionally, impaired renal function can lead to increased production of uric acid, further exacerbating the condition.
