Question by Janardan - Sep 02, 2024Hindi

Health

Hi I am facing an issue of elevated uric acid iver 1 yr now... Gout on left toe and feet and body pains in several body parts like ribs, back etc. Uric acid is constantly above 8...Taking febustat 40 twice daily past 15 days.. Also experiencing indigestion Pl advise

Ans: So, the Febustat is useful for reducing uric acid. However, since you have symptoms of Gout as well, you need additional medication to address the Gout.
However, it is equally important to understand the underlying pathology of why you have high Uric Acid. Alongside medicines, please adopt lifestyle and discuss with a dietitian to understand what dietary modifications need to be done.

Medicine and lifestyle modifications together will ensure better treatment outcomes.

I have retired at 65 years in January 2026. Can I leave my PF money in PF account for three years so that it will earn interest at 8.25% p.a or should I submit Form 19 and withdraw full amount this month or next month. I have another question: my organization has wrongly marked NCP days and written a letter to PF office to correct it. Hence my EPS is on hold on which I should get my arrears for the last seven years, what should I do if this issue is delayed, will NCP days affect my PF final settlement in any way. I have a total service of 11 years 2 months with regard to EPS and 13 years 2 months with regard to PF. Please advice and point me to the exact rule of EPFO on their website with regard to my questions. Please advice. Thank you

Ans: 01. You may not immediately withdraw your amount from PF account & keep earning interest there. It is a good option to keep earning better interest.
02. You should keep following up your case with the concerned NCP & PF Office, to settle your case based on the facts.
03. Your NCP days should not in any way, effect your PF account final settlement.
Most Welcome for further clarifications, if any. Thanks.

Ans: Soham, you have scored a 98 percentile, yet you seem to have doubts about your 12th-grade performance. Could you please clarify a few things? Which board do you belong to? Have you evaluated your 12th-grade question papers to estimate your marks in each subject? When is your board exam result expected to be declared? Regarding NIOS, have you already applied to appear for the April exams, or have you not applied yet? Please note that the application for the April 2026 NIOS exam closed in January. You can still apply for the October/November exams. Please provide these details so I can give you a precise answer.
