What is gout?

Gout is a common, painful form of arthritis, that causes sudden, severe joint pain. It results from a high uric acid level in the blood. Uric acid is formed when chemicals called purines are broken down by the body. Uric acid is normally removed from the body with urine, but this does not always happen. At times, uric acid can build up and form urate crystals, which can cause pain and swelling of joints.

Some people stand at a higher risk of developing gout than others. Gout most commonly attacks your big toe or heel at first.

A gout attack feels discomforting and lasts for a few days. After a while, the gout crystals can form growths around affected joints, known as tophi. If left untreated, gout may lead to complications, such as osteoarthritis, bone erosion and kidney stones.
