Your uric acid level of 10.7 is quite high and can cause severe pain, especially in the feet, which is often a sign of gout. It’s important to avoid foods high in purines like red meat and seafood and drink plenty of water. Visit a rheumatologist, who specializes in treating gout and joint-related conditions, for proper treatment and guidance.

In some cases, postponing treatment may result in additional complications that will require more aggressive procedures.

Essentially failure of the right ACL graft. Blunting of the free edge of the body of the right medial meniscus. Indeterminate appearances of the root of the posterior horn of the right medial meniscus. Tearing of the right lateral meniscus at the junction between the posterior horn and body. An early right knee 'cyclops' lesion cannot be completely excluded. Very early right knee joint degenerative changes.

Your right knee is having some issues. One of the causes of pain, swelling, and the inability to move the knee can be an incorrectly functioning graft that the ACLs are made of. The meniscus tears can cause more pain and problems with your knee bending down. The 'cyclops' lesion may be why it is difficult to straighten your knee. When early changes in the joint are seen, this may be an indication of the wearing down of the knee joint cartilage. Physical therapy and possibly surgery may be needed to treat these conditions. Consult your orthopedic doctor for the best treatment plan.
