| Treating Gout Naturally |
|
Gout (metabolic arthritis) is a condition where uric acid builds up in the joints, causing painful inflammation, redness and sometimes swelling. Gout is most commonly found in the big toe, particularly in men (nine out of ten sufferers are male), although it is more common in women after menopause. Gout also appears to be hereditary, since 20% of those suffering from gout have a history of it in the family. Occurrences of gout are most common at night and can be quite acute. If left alone, the pain typically lasts anywhere between five and ten days, gradually subsiding, until it disappears. Effectively, the body slowly dissipates the build-up of uric acid, but the cause is still there. Western medicine recommends the use of anti-inflammatory drugs to combat the pain, and uric-acid lowering drugs for prevention. Natural Remedies for Gout
