Lord help me I thought after a steroid shot yesterday and these colchicine tablets 0.6 that I have been taken would have relieved something!!!!!!!!!!!! What else can I do????? I seriously don't know how my granny stood this pain!

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
I can understand your agony.Gout is a very painful condition.I would recommend you to continue colchicine , and you can increase your dose if pain is not improving. For future avoid food with seeds, red meat and sudden drinking of high amount of alcohol. Take care.
