Thanks for your query

I'm Dr Sudhir Kumar

I have gone through your query and understand your concern. In acute gout you need anti inflammatory such as ibuprofen/ diclofenac to relieve pain and swelling. For long term relief (chronic) you need to take fabuxostat.

You can discuss with your doctor about it.

Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then I will be happy to help you.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
