Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis that is typically very painful for sufferers. It is very common and tends to come and go in waves, or “flares”, that affect one joint at a time.
There is no cure for gout but the symptoms can be managed – a lot of gout attacks are brought on by lifestyle choices such as diet or alcohol consumption. In addition, there are natural pain relieving supplements available that work to ease the discomfort of gout across the different joints it attacks.
