hi
thanks for your query
probably you are suffering from gouty arthritis along with some uric acid related haematological changes. I will advice you take plenty of water atleast 4 litre per day along with allopurinol tablets initially 100 mg thrice daily. You may also take NSAIDS like diclofenac or acceclofenac along with pantoprazole to reduce local pain and inflammation.
Take an x-ray chest to exclude associated chest problems.
thank you
I find this answer helpful
