Gout Support Group
Gout is a form of arthritis caused by the accumulation of uric acid crystals in joints. It is an intensely painful disease, which in most cases affects only one joint (monoarthritis), most commonly the big toe. The classic picture is of excruciating and sudden pain, swelling, redness, warmness and stiffness in the joint. Low-grade fever may also be present.
He was suppose to take one pill a day. But, there are times when the pain was so unbearable for him. And, the only way to get ride of the pain was to take 2 pills.
I know that these pills are not good for him. Who knows what is happening to his livers, but as of this moment, it\'s the only pill that is helping him walk.
thank you
