Gout is a type of arthritis caused by a buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints. These sharp crystals trigger intense inflammation, swelling, and pain. Gout most commonly affects the big toe, but it can also impact the ankles, knees, wrists, fingers, and elbows.
Commonly searched terms:
Gout occurs when your body produces too much uric acid or cannot remove it efficiently through the kidneys. Uric acid is formed when the body breaks down substances called purines, which are found in certain foods and drinks.
Gout symptoms often appear suddenly, frequently at night, and can be extremely painful.
Gout attacks can last from a few days to several weeks. Without proper treatment, attacks may become more frequent and severe over time.
Gout is usually diagnosed based on symptoms, medical history, and sometimes blood tests to measure uric acid levels. In some cases, joint fluid tests or imaging may be used to confirm the diagnosis.
Effective gout treatment focuses on relieving pain during flare-ups and lowering uric acid levels to prevent future attacks.
