Crystals are rarely formed in the first gout, but may form gradually if the condition is left untreated and allowed to continue to develop.
Gout is a disease in which the patient’s blood uric acid level is too high, leading to the precipitation of uric acid crystals deposited in the toes, joints, etc. Uric acid is the metabolic end product of purines, and the precipitation of uric acid crystals for the first time gout is not as fast, so the first gout will seldom form crystals.
The first gouty attack usually involves only one joint, as the disease progresses, there can be multiple joints to produce crystals.
Once the symptoms of gout, patients should go to the rheumatology and immunology department of the regular hospital as soon as possible to actively receive standardized treatment, standardized treatment under the guidance of the doctor, to avoid aggravation of the condition.
