Gout<\/strong> is a joint inflammation that comes in attacks and hurts a lot. Inflammation comes quickly, is very powerful and then usually heals completely within one to three weeks. You can get medications that prevent gout if you often get problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you get gout, the inner toe of the big toe is usually inflamed, but other joints can also become inflamed. The reason is that crystals of uric acid have formed in the joint. The crystals can be likened to small sharp needles and cause pain and inflammation in the joint where they are formed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gout attacks can be more easily triggered in conjunction with high stress on the body, for example during surgery or a severe infection.\u00a0A gout attack can also be triggered by eating a lot, especially protein-rich foods while drinking alcohol.\u00a0The fact that the inner toe of the big toe becomes inflamed is sometimes referred to as a gate winch or page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Symptoms of gout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the case of a gout<\/span> attack, the problems usually come on suddenly and often start at night. A joint, often the base of the big toe, quickly becomes sore, red and swollen. The pain increases for a few hours and the joint becomes very sensitive to touch. A light print from a sheet, for example, can hurt a lot. It is common to get a little fever and feel sick and frozen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the inflammation begins to recede, usually after days to a week, the skin over the joint can begin to peel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several joints can be inflamed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is most common with gout in the big toe, but any joint can be attacked. You can get gout in late skis or mucus bags, for example around the heel or in a mucus bag on the outside of the elbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When and where should I seek care?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Contact a\u00a0\u00a0health care provider if you suspect you have gout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can seek care at any healthcare center you want throughout the country.\u00a0You also have the opportunity to have a regular doctor’s contact at the health center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seek treatment directly at an emergency room or\u00a0emergency\u00a0room if you have severe problems or if this is your first time having a seizure and do not know for sure that it is gout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most cases of gout are treated by doctors at the health care center, but sometimes you get a\u00a0\u00a0referral to the hospital’s emergency room.\u00a0If the doctor has difficulty diagnosing or if there is a problem with the treatment, you can get a referral to a rheumatologist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
