Home > Gout And Uric Acid Control

Overview

Gout is a painful type of arthritis caused by the accumulation of uric acid crystals in the joints, commonly affecting the feet, especially the big toe. It often presents as sudden, severe joint pain with redness and swelling. Repeated attacks can damage joints and may lead to kidney complications if not properly managed.

At Baby Memorial Hospitals, gout is treated through a combination of accurate diagnosis, acute symptom relief, and long-term control of uric acid levels. Patients receive targeted medications such as anti-inflammatories and urate-lowering drugs, alongside guidance on diet and lifestyle modifications. Joint fluid analysis may be performed when needed. Our treatment approach focuses on preventing recurrence, protecting joint health, and improving overall wellbeing.
