Every day "milk tea continues", the guy grows "stone" in his knees, doctor: alert to induced gout

The Yangtze River Daily Da Wuhan client June 27th (correspondent Ma Yaoyao) Recently, a young man in Hankou suddenly had a pain in his knees when he slept at night, and almost couldn't walk the next day. After going to the hospital for examination, the doctor diagnosed him as an gout, with multiple uric acid crystals in both knee joints. The doctor learned that the guy loved to drink milk tea and almost drank milk tea as water. Experts from the Department of Rheumatology of Wuhan Central Hospital reminded that high -sugar drinks that some citizens are drinking every day are actually risk factors that induce gout.

The 25 -year -old Mr. Yang (a pseudonym) lived in Houhu and loved to drink milk tea. In his own words, he had to "milk tea" every day, and almost drank milk tea as water. Where to open a new milk tea shop, Mr. Yang also had to try the early as soon as possible. In the evening of three days ago, Mr. Yang, who was sleeping, suddenly felt the pain of his knees. This was the third time he had appeared in this symptom for more than a month. The next day, he found that the two knees were swollen and painful, his legs were difficult to bend, and it was difficult to walk. Subsequently, the family sent him to the Houhu Hospital of Wuhan Central Hospital to see a doctor.

After inspection, Mr. Yang's uric acid value was as high as 700 μmol/L. Diagnosis of the deputy chief physician of the rheumatology and immunology department, Mr. Yang got gout. According to Fang Yan, the normal value of blood uric acid is 149 to 416 μmol/L. The patient has seriously exceeded the standard. It was further checked through the dual -source CT and found that there were quite a lot of uric acid crystals in the knee cavity of the patient. Yesterday, Dr. Fang Yan removed the uric acid salt crystallization through minimally invasive arthrocytic knife mirror surgery, and Mr. Yang's previous symptoms were significantly relieved. Dr. Fang Ye learned from the medical history that Mr. Yang did not drink or eat seafood, but he had the habit of drinking milk tea. Dr. Fang judged that the patient's gout was closely related to drinking milk tea.

Research in recent years has found that the intake of fructose is closely related to gout. Although fructose does not contain purine, some ingredients contained in it can promote the body's synthesis of more purines, thereby promoting the synthesis of endogenous uric acid; on the other hand, it will also hinder uric acid excretion, which will cause uric acid to produce The speed is far greater than the speed of excretion, so long -term drinking high fructose drinks can cause gout attacks by patients.

Chen Wenli, director of the rheumatism department of the hospital, reminded that many people think that eating seafood, drinking and intake of high purine can induce gout. In fact, drinks with high sugar -containing amounts of milk tea can also affect uric acid metabolism. Almost every sugar -containing drink contains fructose, fruit juice, cola, milk tea and other fructose content is very high. Now it is promoted to the "dark horse" in the gout world. In the hot summer, citizens with gout should drink plenty of water in daily life, can drink white water or light tea, do not drink too much milk tea or carbonated drinks, especially with high sugar -containing beverages instead of water. In addition, proper exercise is also very important, and exercise can accelerate the metabolism and excretion of uric acid.
