After an attack of gout, there is a possibility of recurrence for life, but early and active treatment of patients, usually does not affect normal life. Gout is a disease caused by high uric acid levels in the patient’s body and the precipitation of uric acid crystals in the joints. The specific cause and pathogenesis of the disease are still unclear, but most of the patients are due to impaired purine metabolism in the body and excessive synthesis of uric acid, etc. Gout itself is a lifelong, metabolic disease. Gout itself is a lifelong, metabolic disease, once an attack usually means that the patient has the above purine metabolism disorder, so the patient will be lifelong recurrence possible. However, gout is similar to hypertension, diabetes and other chronic diseases, although the possibility of lifelong recurrence, if the patient after active treatment, usually can control the condition. First of all, patients usually reduce the intake of high purine foods such as beer and animal liver to reduce the synthesis of uric acid in the body. Secondly, patients can also control their condition by taking drugs that inhibit uric acid synthesis, such as febuxostat, and promote uric acid excretion, such as benzbromarone, in strict compliance with medical advice. After active treatment, the condition of most patients is well controlled and will not affect their daily life. It is recommended that gout patients actively seek medical treatment to avoid recurrent attacks.
