Home Medical Info Disease Index Gout What is Gout? A form of arthritis that is a painful inflammation and swelling of the joints caused by the buildup of uric acid in the body. Certain foods cause gout so diet plays a role. Treatment of g out can be acheived through medication and proper diet. Gout Symptoms The most common gout symptom is sudden, severe attacks of pain, tenderness, redness, warmth and swelling in some joints. It usually affects one joint at a time, especially the joint of the big toe, but can also affect the knee, ankle, foot, hand, wrist and elbow. Deposits of uric acid, called tophi, can appear as lumps under the skin around the joints and at the rim of the ear. In addition, uric acid crystals can also collect in the kidneys and cause kidney stones. Causes of Gout This is one of the few types of arthritis where the cause is known. It results from deposits of needle-like crystals of uric acid in the connective tissue, joint spaces, or both. Normally this is a byproduct of the breakdown of purines or waste products in the body. Normally uric acid breaks down in the blood and is eliminated in urine. When the body increases its production of uric acid or if the kidneys do not eliminate enough of it from the body, levels build up. This is called hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia is not a disease and is not dangerous. However, if excess uric acid crystals form as a result of hyperuricemia, gout can develop. Foods that Cause Gout Gout Treatment Although there is no cure, most people with gout can keep it under control and lead normal lives. Treatment may consist of one treatment or a combination of treatments.

Search September 9, 2005 Registration Healthcare Professionals You are in: Kidneys and Urinary System Gout Gout Overview Gout is a condition in which the body has a problem in the handling of uric acid. People with gout either produce too much uric acid or more commonly their bodies have a problem in removing it. There are a number of possible consequences of this build up of uric acid in the body, including acute and chronic gouty arthritis, kidney stones, and deposits of uric acid in subcutaneous and other tissues (tophi). Gout may occur alone (primary gout) or may be associated with certain medical conditions or medications (secondary gout). Gouty arthritis should be considered in people who have a sudden onset of a hot, red, swollen joint. It is diagnosed by finding uric acid (monosodium urate) crystals in the joint fluid. These crystals can accumulate over the years in the joint and trigger repeated bouts of inflammation. If left untreated, the accumulated crystals can damage the joint and lead to chronic arthritis. Fortunately, there are effective medications to treat gout. Last updated: Aug 10, 2005
