What is gout?
Gout is a type of arthritis that can affect anyone. It usually occurs in men when they are middle aged. Women don’t normally develop symptoms of gout until after menopause.
Gout happens when uric acid, a normal waste product in the body, builds up and forms sharp crystals within the joints. This build up occurs when there is too much uric acid in the blood, or the kidneys cannot get rid of it. This triggers an inflammatory response in the joint leading to a gout attack or flare with symptoms of intense pain, swelling, redness and tenderness.
