This mess hit me all of a sudden. Feels like I rolled my ankle and stepped on a golf ball. Can't move my foot. Taken 4 ibuprofen and 3 aleve. Internet says to stay away from alcohol but I am thinking bout getting the bottle out. Got ice pack on it. This SOB. Is killing me just sitting still. Y'all got any home remedies?
Call stockbridge he has it and might could tell ya.....
allopurinol , take it daily (300 mg). been there done that . hurts as bad as a kidney stone if it gets right . sounds crazy but squatting to duck walk will press the crystals out but will hurt like heck and the doctor said to soak foot in cool but not cold . do not use ice pack or heat . definitely no heat .
No a Guy that takes a pill
Works good for him
Eat dried cherries or canned cherries packed in water. I like the dried cherries best. Does work, had gout in my big toe and ate cherries and it went away.
x2 on the cherries;BLACK CHERRIES worked the best there is something different from a regular cherry !!!!don't know why but it does work !!!Quote:

Allopurinol 300mg 2x's daily along with Black Cherry extract daily... Once it flares you're pretty much toast... Black Cherry anything in massive amounts along with Naproxen Sodium is best bet...
Black Cherries make the body excrete Uric acid- what causes flare ups... I've had swollen hands, feet, knees and elbows... It is some wicked painful stuff for sure...
