Homeopathy Treatment For Gout

gout.jpg

Gout is a form of arthritis which is caused by the accumulation of uric acid crystals in joints. In this condition, due to a metabolic dysfunction, there is deposition of uric acid in and around the joints causing severe painfulness, swelling and restricted mobility of the affected joint. Any joints in the body can be affected with gout, although the joint at the base of the great toe has a higher chance of developing the condition. Increased uric acid is not a disease and by itself is not dangerous. However, if excess uric acid levels lead to formation of crystals between the joints, gout can develop.

​

Gout has four distinct stages:

  • Asymptomatic: High levels of Uric acid in blood but no joint complaints

  • Acute phase: Acute complaints described above occur for a brief period

  • Intercritical phase: There is no pain or swelling of joints in this phase, the patient is relatively symptom-free.

  • Chronic: Gout attacks may become frequent during this phase and the condition may affect many joints at a time (poly-articular). Tophi formation may also be seen.

 

Cause:

  • Disturbance in Purine metabolism

 

Symptoms:

  • Sudden pain

  • Swelling

  • Redness

  • Warmth

  • Stiffness of the joint

  • Low-grade fever

 

Benefits of Homeopathy:

The homeopathic approach to Gout treatment is more of a totalistic approach. Homeopathy helps in controlling the pain during the acute attack of gout as well as helps in preventing the recurrence of such episodes. It helps in reducing stiffness and improves the mobility of the joints. Homeopathy is very strongly suggested for the treatment of Gout. Homeopathy can help treat gout effectively. They relieve painful symptoms of an acute gout attack by aiding the elimination of excessive uric acid from the body.
