What Should I Do If I Experience Frequent Gout Attacks?

Frequent gout attacks can be alleviated through dietary adjustment and daily care. If the situation cannot be improved through these methods, it is necessary to promptly visit the rheumatology and immunology department of a formal hospital and actively cooperate with doctors in treatment.

Patients should pay attention to a reasonable diet in daily life, avoiding high-purine foods such as animal organs and seafood. At the same time, they should also pay attention to drinking more water, which can promote uric acid excretion and effectively reduce the number of gout attacks to a certain extent. In addition, patients can also appropriately consume fresh fruits and vegetables, such as apples and tomatoes, which help supplement vitamin C and various trace elements, and have a certain role in helping the recovery of the disease.

Patients should also take good warmth measures to avoid catching a cold, which may worsen joint pain symptoms. At the same time, they should maintain a good mindset, avoiding excessive excitement or tension, as this may affect the recovery of the body.

If gout attacks are frequent and accompanied by obvious discomfort symptoms, it is recommended that patients take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor for pain relief, such as Ibuprofen Sustained-release Capsules and Diclofenac Sodium Sustained-release Tablets. If necessary, glucocorticoid drugs can also be used under the doctor's advice, such as Dexamethasone Tablets and Prednisolone Acetate Tablets. In addition, frequent gout attacks may also be related to unhealthy living habits, so it is necessary to actively correct unhealthy living habits. If other discomforts occur, medical attention should be sought promptly to avoid delaying the condition.
