Some Remedies for Gout Gout attacks are sudden and often occur at night. The excruciating pain may last for days, leaving the joints inflamed and making movements painful. Gout is the result of over-production or under-excretion of uric acid. Middle-aged, over-weight males, having a family history of gout are specific victims in most cases. Unfortunately, there exists no absolute or definite cure for gout. A sufferer may undertake some measures to alleviate the pain and leave with this affliction. What Is Gout? Gout is an extremely painful disease and can cause immense discomfort apart from complications like kidney stones and the like. Unfortunately, there is no established cure for gout. The best means of thwarting gout attacks is prevention. These insidious attacks occur when you will be least expecting it, sometimes while you are asleep. Symptoms of Gout and its Causes Gout is also known as crystal-induced arthritis. It is a medical condition that sets in when uric acid crystals collect on the joints. At the first stage, gout usually affects the large joints in the big toe. Gradually it can spread to other parts of the body, like the ankles, the instep, the heels and the knees, the wrists and fingers of the hand and the elbows. In severe cases, even the shoulders, hips or spine can be affected. Gout does not spread from one joint to the next. Gout - Medicines That Are Very Helpful The medicines that are commonly used in alleviating the pain and other gout symptoms include: - Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) - Allopurinol - Colchicines - Corticosteroids - Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) - Probenicid - Sulfinpyrazone Gout Home Treatment - How To Treat Gout At Home In the human body, uric acid is produced from t he metabolic breakdown of purines found in many food items.
