Gout Explained

Gout is a more complex form of arthritis characterized by sudden and quite severe attacks of pain, swelling, redness, and tenderness in your joints.^[2] The condition is especially known to affect your big toe joint.

The Gout attack can occur suddenly or sometimes when walking or even sleeping., You may have a burning sensation in your big toe. The affected joint will often feel hot to the touch, become very swollen and tender, and extremely painful.

Though Gout symptoms come and o, there are many ways to manage the symptoms and prevent flare-ups.

• Symptoms – Gout usually occurs in the big toe, and you will feel intense joint pain that will be most severe in the first 12 hours of the attack. The intense pain may subside. However, there may be some lingering pain afterward, spreading to other joints. There may also be inflammation and redness in the affected joints and limited motion.
• Causes – Gout occurs because of the accumulation of urate crystals in your joints, ultimately leading to inflammation and causing intense pain attacks. Urate Crystals usually form because you have too much uric acid in your blood. Your body mainly produces uric acid when it breaks down purines, found in foods such as red and organ meats, certain seafood, and alcoholic beverages, especially beer.^[3] Normally uric aid will dissolve in your blood and pass through the kidneys as urine; however, if there is too much uric acid or your kidney secrete too little, it can build up and form sharp needle-like urate crystals in your joints.
• Risk factors – Some risk factors include trauma or recent surgery to the joint. Gout also affects men between 30 and 50 more than women because they naturally have higher uric acid levels in their bodies. Gout may be hereditary. Certain medications, such as thiazide diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, beta-blockers, anti-rejection drugs prescribed for individuals who have received an organ transplant, or low-dose aspirin, may cause Gout. Medical Conditions such as heart and kidney disease, arthritis, and Diabetes likewise place you at risk of getting Gout. Being overweight and eating a diet rich in red and organic meat, or shellfish, and especially sugary drinks and alcohol, mostly beer, will increase your risk of getting Gout.
• Complications – Many people may have Gout once and never experience the symptoms or a flare-up again. However, others may experience symptoms and flare-ups many times a year. Some medications may help with more recurrent gout attacks but left untreated, Gout can cause erosion and, ultimately, destruction of a joint. Untreated and more advanced Gout can cause deposits or uric acid crystals to form under the skin that can become tender and painful during a gout attack. Uric acid crystals may also collect in your urinary tract and cause kidney stones in individuals with Gout.

Shoes features for Gout

If you have Gout, especially affecting the big toe, I would suggest a shoe with a roomy toe box that does not place any pressure on the toe joint.

You want a more flexible outsole that makes walking easier, a shoe with good arch support, and plenty of shock-absorbing cushioning under your feet.

You may opt for a shoe with adjustable straps or laces to accommodate swelling.
