Gout is a painful form of arthritis that occurs when high levels of uric acid in the blood cause crystals to form and build up in or around the joints. Uric acid is produced when the body breaks down chemicals called purines. Purines are found naturally in your body and in certain foods. Uric acid is excreted from the body through urine.

For the last two weeks, I quarreled with my daughter-in-law, and then I slept by myself. One day, when I woke up, my ankle started to hurt. Then I thought at first that I was in a wrong position when I was sleeping, twisted my foot, and didn’t pay much attention.

The circle of friends posted a picture, and then the friend laughed and asked which pose did it. I just thought it was accidentally twisted. Later, a friend asked if it could be gout.

Gout sprained my foot

Then I thought about my recent diet and daily living habits, etc., I thought it was very likely that when I got older, I was very likely to get this “rich” disease. It is said that this disease is caused by eating too much, and then all kinds of joints in the body may hurt again, and life is better than death.

Since I returned to work at Microsoft , there are many free carbonated beverages in the company’s refrigerator: for example, it is not a problem to have a few small cans of happy fat house water such as Coke, and there is also beer in the refrigerator at home to quench thirst in summer. I don’t usually pay attention to my diet, I never eat meat or seafood. Then there are programmers who are sedentary. The combination of these factors is likely to lead to gout (gout)

The second and third days of my pain were particularly uncomfortable. Even after taking the painkillers paracetamol (paracetamol) and ibuprofen (ibuprofen), it was still very painful. It was so painful that no matter how much I put my foot on it, I would feel the pain, let alone accidentally. Where did the foot touch lightly, and it was difficult to sit still. Later, I called the GP doctor, the doctor referred me to the pharmacy, and then I went to the pharmacy accompanied by my daughter-in-law. The pharmacy doctor checked briefly and found that the foot was not broken, so I bought gauze and asked me to go home and rest: put my foot up stand up.

A week later, the situation improved a little. I called the GP again and said that I seriously suspected gout. The doctor checked my medical records and said it was very likely (because the PSA level was too high for the physical examination when I returned to China), and then I went to the hospital. I was prescribed Naproxen for four weeks (before the blood test?). And that afternoon, the nurse had an appointment for a blood test. The results came out the next day. I waited for two days for insurance to call the GP clinic, and then the receptionist checked the records and said it was gout, and some other blood indicators were abnormal, but she felt that the problem was not very big, Because the GP doctor did not contact me again for examination.

When people are middle-aged and old, they still have to enjoy it in time, eat healthy, exercise more, and pay attention to their health. If they hang up early, they will lose a lot of endowment insurance. mutual encouragement.
