Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i am a 47 year old women with high blood pressure, diabetes, copd, overweight, 350 lbs. and 5 foot 3 i have been diagnosed with gout and i have some nuropathy in my hands and feet but the worst is the swollen and inflammed and itching joints very painful can not hardly tolerate it have actually stractched my joints on my fingers till i leave small hole like sores on them.
The symptoms seem to be related to gout. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. Cold compresses can also be helpful. To treat the gout I recommend specific treatment such as Allopurinol which is a prescription treatment.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
