Gout

Gout is a painful condition of joints. It can affect one or more joints. It is painful inflammation of the joints. It causes severe pain and inflammation of the joints. It is caused due to accumulation of a chemical called as uric acid in the blood. Uric acid is produced during the digestion of proteins in the body. Most of the uric acid is passed out in the urine and stool. In people suffering from gout, the amount of uric acid increases in the blood. Small crystals are formed that collect in the joints. These crystals irritate the joints and can cause inflammation, swelling and pain. When kidneys fail to pass out the uric acid formed in the body, it starts accumulating in the joints and causes this painful condition called as gout. There are several factors due to which accumulation of uric acid takes place in the blood. Men are more affected as compared to women. It may start during the middle age and sometimes it can also start in young age.
