In ancient times, gout was called “imperial disease” or “disease of wealth”, and the first Westerners thought that gout was “the devil biting the foot”. It is characterized clinically by hyperuricemia, recurrent acute arthritis, gout stone deposition, chronic arthritis and joint deformity, substantial renal lesions and uric acid stone formation. Treatment: regular medication is required “The primary goal of treatment is to reduce joint pain and swelling. When the pain flares up, patients can rest the affected joints on their own and give ice to the affected joints. Experienced patients can always keep some painkillers on hand and take them as soon as they notice joint discomfort, often stopping the progression of arthritis.” When you go to the hospital for treatment, medication should be given in adequate amounts of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, small doses of colchicine, and moderate amounts of glucocorticoids. It is understood that there are also intermittent episodes of gout. The absence of effective treatment after the first attack can lead to an increase in the frequency of attacks, a shortening of the interval, an increase in symptoms, a longer duration of inflammation and an increase in the number of joints involved. Most second attacks occur between six months and two years after the initial attack, with some individuals experiencing a second attack 27 years later. “The goal of this phase of treatment is to control blood uric acid and prevent gout attacks and their complications.” During the interval period, patients are free of discomfort, but uric acid is still wreaking havoc in the body. If left untreated, gout attacks will become more frequent, and in time, gout stones, joint destruction deformities, complications of uric acid nephropathy, urinary stones and eventually renal insufficiency will occur. As long as you take uric acid-lowering drugs regularly and control blood uric acid, this will prevent recurrent gout attacks and prevent complications from occurring. At present, there are clinical tests for blood uric acid, uric acid and synovial fluid, and X-ray tests. Exercise: “Do what you can” Exercise is not only good for gout patients, but also beneficial for reducing and relieving joint pain, preventing joint contractures and muscle wasting atrophy. There are many suitable items, such as brisk walking, jogging, tai chi, radio exercises, walking, qigong, shuttlecock, swimming, rope skipping, etc. Gout patients should choose exercise according to their physical condition, physical strength and endurance as well as personal preference. The time can be gradually increased from 15 minutes to 45 minutes, generally 5 times a week. Gout prevention diet should pay attention to the “amount”, try to avoid the intake of high purine food. As a gout patient, no matter yellow wine, beer, white wine are not appropriate to drink, you can drink some wine to cheer or light tea instead of wine, etc.. In order to prevent the accumulation of uric acid in the kidneys, you should drink a lot of water, the daily water consumption should be maintained at more than 2000 ml, and at the same time should drink evenly, do not drink too much at once.
