🦶 What Is Gout?
Have you ever felt a sudden, sharp pain in your big toe — especially at night? 😣
That could be gout, a type of arthritis caused by high levels of uric acid in the blood.
When this uric acid builds up, it forms tiny crystals in the joints. These crystals cause pain, redness, and swelling — most commonly in the toes, ankles, or knees.
Gout can make even walking or wearing shoes painful! 👣
🌡️ Why Does Gout Happen?
There are several reasons gout may occur:
🍖 Rich diet – Eating too much red meat, seafood, or processed food
🍺 Alcohol & sugary drinks – They raise uric acid levels
🧬 Family history – Gout often runs in families
⚖️ Obesity & lifestyle – Extra weight can stress the joints
💊 Certain medicines – Some drugs can affect uric acid balance
Gout can come in sudden attacks and then disappear for weeks or months — but if not managed properly, it can become chronic and damaging to your joints.
⚠️ Common Symptoms of Gout
Be aware of these signs so you can act early 👇
🔸 Sudden joint pain (especially in the big toe)
🔸 Swelling and tenderness
🔸 Red, shiny skin over the affected joint
🔸 Warmth and stiffness
🔸 Pain that gets worse at night
Even though an attack may last only a few days, repeated episodes can cause permanent joint damage if ignored.
