Treatment For Gout In The Big Toe
The big toe is often affected by gout because it has a lower temperature compared to other parts of the body.
Gout is a form of arthritis caused by the buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints. Uric acid is a waste product that is normally filtered by the kidneys and excreted in urine.
However, in a person with gout, there is an overproduction or underexcretion of uric acid, leading to its accumulation in the body.
