What is Gout?

It is a painful inflammatory disease caused by excessive build-up of uric acid within the body, resulting in inflammation and swelling of the joint. Gout initially affects the big toe, causing it to swell and become very painful. It then spreads to the ankles, knees, feet, wrist, elbow, and the hands. It is a form of arthritis characterized by swelling and inflammation of the joints.

Causes of Gout

According to Ayurveda, Gout is caused by Vata. This further vitiates the blood and contributes to the accumulations of toxins in the blood and urine. Food incompatibility, excessive protein intake, a lack of elimination of metabolic waste, hereditary factors, age, gender, alcohol consumption and climate may be contributing factors.

Symptoms of Gout

Burning pain, redness, swelling, stiffness and loss of appetite sometimes accompany, as well as nausea, flatulence, abdominal cramps, constipation, and highly coloured and scanty urine.
