Symptoms of Gout (Metabolic Arthritis)
HAVE you experienced waking up in the middle of the night, and your big toe feels as if it’s on fire. It’s hot, swollen and so painful that even the weight of a sheet on it seems intolerable? These problems could indicate that you have an acute attack of gout — or gouty arthritis — a form of arthritis that’s characterized by sudden, severe attacks of pain, redness and tenderness in joints.
Gout (Metabolic Arthritis )is a complex disorder that can affect anyone. Men are more likely to get gout than women are, but women become increasingly susceptible to gout after menopause.
