Could Swollen Wrist & Toes Suggest A Gout Infection?
My husband had gout in his right toe about 3 weeks ago. 1st time. Now, he has a swollen, painful right wrist, with no apparent cause for injury. Could this be also gout? Yes, he drinks beer. Does black cherry juice, and dried black cherries help with inflammation? If so then how much for how long before things get better?

The cherries and cherry juice can help but he also needs a prescription for Colcrys to resolve the problem
