About 20 years ago I woke up with what I thought was a broken toe. Went to A and E, they x rayed and said "see your doctor you have gout. "
He gave me a course of Indocid anti inflammatory pills, that got rid of it within a day.
Since then I take one 100mg Allopurinol pill every day, often I forget, never had a bad attack since.
But I also have a supply of anti inflammatory pills (motifene)and I take one, probably 3 or 4 times a year if I feel a slight twinge.
If I was you I would go and see a Doctor, there is no need to suffer in this day and age.
From what I have found it out, Gout is caused more by ancestry than diet.
