Alkaptonuria is a rare inherited condition where the body can't fully break down certain proteins. Over time, a dark pigment builds up in tissues and can turn urine dark, especially after it stands. It may also cause joint pain, stiffness, and problems with the heart or kidneys later in life.

People with alkaptonuria may notice symptoms such as dark urine on standing, joint pain and reduced mobility. A medical evaluation can help determine the nature and severity of the condition and whether treatment or ongoing monitoring is needed.
