Gout is related with the tremendously painful form of arthritis which causes swollen, red, and stiff joints. Usually it develops in the big toe. But gout affects other joints including the ankles, heel, wrists, knees, fingers, and elbows.

The symptoms of a gout attack develop suddenly and if properly treated, subside after a few weeks.

More often than not this type of arthritis occurs when uric acid levels in the blood go up. As our bodies break down purines, uric acid is formed. Purines are chemicals which are often found in fish, poultry, red meat etc.

This acid is a waste product and in healthy people it is constantly broken down in order to maintain the normal levels in the blood.

Major gout causes are obesity, heredity, excessive consumption of alcohol, high blood pressure, intake of certain drugs, consumptions of foods which are having high levels of purine.

Symptoms of a gout attack can sometimes be –

1. The attacked joint becomes reddish, painful, swells, and feels warm.

2. During the affected period, people incur a fever, chills and just plain don’t feel good.

3. Joints will swell which leads to bursitis.

4. Sudden and intense pain can be expected. People attacked by gout especially in the big toe have trouble walking, even severe pain from bed sheets which covers their feet.

5. An attack of gout usually lasts for a few hours to several days. In very rare cases, it can last a few weeks.

6. If it is left untreated then it may lead to some deformities.

There are many treatment options available for gout, but some medicines, when used over a long period are known to have severe side effects.

These reasons are why most medical professionals recommend herbal treatment. These are natural treatments and don’t have any side effects and for most people it is the only effective treatment…
