Gout is a painful form of arthritis caused by excess uric acid crystallizing in the joints. It leads to inflammation, swelling, and intense pain, often in the big toe. While medication helps manage symptoms, making the right lifestyle changes can reduce uric acid levels and prevent future flare-ups.\n
Uric acid is a waste product formed when the body breaks down purines\u2014compounds found in foods and naturally produced by the body. Normally, uric acid is dissolved in the blood and excreted through urine. However, when levels become too high, it crystallizes in the joints, triggering painful attacks.\n
