How often gout will recur is generally inconclusive, some patients may have frequent attacks, some patients may have very few attacks. The frequency of gout attacks may be related to the patient’s daily dietary habits, medication (e.g. febuxostat), local tissue damage and other reasons. 1. Daily dietary habits: High purine diets, such as seafood, meat broth, animal offal and large amounts of alcohol consumption, can cause blood uric acid values to rise rapidly in a short period of time, leading to acute attacks of gout. Purine is the metabolite of uric acid, so it can be induced. Ethanol metabolism can increase plasma lactate concentration, thus inhibiting renal tubular secretion of uric acid, which can reduce the excretion of uric acid, so it can also induce gouty attacks. 2. Drug therapy: during the treatment with uric acid-lowering drugs such as febuxostat, the fluctuation of blood uric acid level will dissolve the original urate crystals, which can lead to the aggravation of arthritis or metastatic gout attack. 3. Local tissue damage: local tissue damage can occur after the urate crystals fall off, can also trigger gout attacks, commonly found in long-distance walking, joint sprains, shoes and socks improperly worn, and so on. Therefore, how often gout will recur is generally inconclusive, some patients may have frequent attacks, some patients may have few attacks. Generally speaking, the frequency of gout flare-ups can be effectively reduced through active and standardized treatment. It is recommended that gout patients seek medical treatment in a timely manner and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment in order to reduce the number of gout attacks.
