With gout, a disturbed uric acid metabolism leads to an excessive amount of uric acid. This can no longer be excreted from the body, as would normally happen via the kidneys. The formation of so-called urate crystals is then promoted.
The urate crystals settle in the joints in different parts of the body and cause pain. An acute attack of gout typically causes severe pain at night. Among the joints that are frequently affected are the base joint of the big toe, the knee joint and the various joints on the fingers. Gout can be promoted by a predominantly meaty diet and drinking a lot of alcohol. Therefore, treatment should always be accompanied by a change in diet.
