How to Lower Uric Acid?

**cjv_justice** · September 6th, 2012 11:32 AM

I'm a bit embarrassed but I myself have gout. In fact, my right big toe is killing me right now. I'm taking in Colchicine and Flanax, swelling's still there but not as bad as yesterday. I'm also drinking alot of water but unfortunatley I'm drinking a cup of coffee as I type this. My Dad also has gout and even my younger brother who's alot worse when they have their episodes, its either my left or right big toes that swell up. Thanks to this thread.

sir cjv-justice hope ma ease na yun pain ng gout mo
ako ankle ko ang may attack, and the most severe attack hirap ako makatayo man lang
it helps if you soak the affected area sa hot water

thanks chief. yeah na-encounter ko narin pala yung sa ankle, pero worse talaga yung sa big toe. kahit yun lang yung masakit, parang buong katawan mo apektado hirap kumilos dahil konti movement lang sa toe sobrang sakit na. nyets.

dami na din pala member ng gout dito... pwede na mag-eb sa pgh, makati med o st. luke's! :lol:

seriously, ako sa ankle din, hirap! kahit di mo igalaw masakit pa din. tama sabi ni sir greenlyt, laki bagay hot compress para ma-ease yung pain. kaya ako iwas na talaga sa bawal na pagkain.

question lang, ang pistachio ba e nut?

mga doc... pag mataas ba ang cholesterol it means may uric or gout ka din?
the last time i checked mataas cholesterol ko (300+) at pag umaga masakit paa ko... hirap ako makalakad pero after a few mins. of walking nawawala na ang sakit...

ang massage ba nakakatulong din magpababa ng uric acid, gout at cholesterol?
para kasing nawala yung sakit sa paa ko nung lagi ko massage yung talampakan ko with an electronic back massager..... yung sandalan na may parang may gumugolong gulong ? i bought it lang sa tiange....

Sa St. Lukes the Fort para sossy. :D

Thankfully the gout isn't much of an issue with my family... mahilig pa naman ako sa munggo. My former boss also gets really bad episodes where one time i had to wheel him in his office chair.

i dont think gout yung nae-experience mo pag morning. di nakukuha ang gout sa massage. kailangan talaga siya i-treat afaik. saka di ka pala halos makalakad pag inatake ka nito...

meron din ako nyang pang-massage na sinasabi mo sir... pang-likod siya pero pwede din naman sa legs pag hiniga mo siya. sa kiosk ng mga chinese ko siya nabili..

nag research ako dati about gout, its more of a hereditary thing
parang others may eat a lot of food rich with uric acid pero wont have an attack of gout
pero yun may lahi ng gout kaunti lang kainin magkaka roon na ng gout
ang ginagawa ko kung hindi maiwasan kumain, i drink a lot of water to flush the acid out tapos sundutan ko ng green tea

sir terence tama si sir vinj sa st luke's da fort na lang para sosy and magaganda ata nurse dun
