Talking about Gout at the Fu Yang Festival

  The annual “Volkswagen Festival” has arrived. In the summer night breeze, friends gather, eat lamb, drink cold beer, and enjoy a comfortable, cozy life. Every time I see such a scene, as a doctor, I think of my several special patients, all under the age of 40, have reached the stage of gouty kidney disease, waiting for them will be long years of dialysis. Therefore, the doctor’s conscience is urging me to: appeal – preach – standardize treatment – doctor and patient work together. In this way, we can achieve a virtuous circle to overcome the disease together.  With the improvement of people’s living standard, more and more people suffer from gout, which is a “king’s disease” and has started to enter the “common people’s home”, with recurrent attacks of arthritis that are not effective with conventional drugs, combined with gout stone formation, joint deformity, kidney function The recurrent attacks of arthritis, which do not respond well to conventional drugs, are often combined with gout stone formation, joint deformity, renal insufficiency, hypertension, diabetes and coronary heart disease, causing great pain and affecting the quality of life and life expectancy of patients.  As the saying goes, “disease comes from the mouth”, most patients’ living and eating habits lead to the occurrence of gout, such as the mutton, mutton soup and beer mentioned here, all of which are high purine diet, which increases the production of uric acid in the body after intake, and the hot weather makes most of the water in the body excreted through sweat, which reduces the amount of urine accordingly, resulting in a significant increase in the level of uric acid in the blood, causing the gout attack. This causes the attack of gout.  Therefore, in this season, we should pay attention to the adjustment of diet, especially for those who suffer from hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia, when you enjoy your life happily, remember that “disease comes from the mouth”. The purpose of early detection, prevention and treatment is to reduce the pain caused by arthritis.
