Gout, also known as gouty arthritis, is an inflammatory arthritis that usually affects the joint at the base of the big toe. It can also occur on your fingers, wrists, knees, and heels. Gout attacks usually come on suddenly and can be very painful. During an attack, you will feel pain and swelling. Your joints may also feel warm, however, between gout attacks, you may not experience any symptoms at all. For people with gout, gout is an excruciatingly painful condition. During an attack, your joints may be suddenly sore, swollen, and inflamed; in severe cases, the severe pain may even wake you up in the middle of the night.
Gout is caused by too much uric acid, which is a byproduct formed by the breakdown of purines in the blood, mainly from food. Small clumps of uric acid crystals build up in the joints, causing gout attacks. If left untreated, gout can become chronic, with more frequent and longer-lasting attacks. It can even cause permanent damage to your joints, so prompt treatment is especially important.
How to help relieve gout?
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen can relieve some symptoms, but these drugs can cause side effects and further damage your health. In recent years, the use of PEMF therapy to relieve gout pain has gained increasing acceptance. Unlike pain relievers, PEMF therapy targets the underlying cause of gout pain by promoting the body’s natural anti-inflammatory functions. It is a drug-free alternative therapy without any harmful side effects. The gentle yet powerful pulses of PEMF therapy help increase blood flow. The increased blood flow allows more oxygen to enter the bloodstream, which is then transported throughout the body. With more oxygen, the body’s natural healing and anti-inflammatory functions kick in. They help flush uric acid and other harmful toxins out of the body. In addition, rhythmic pulses interfere with the formation of uric acid crystals in surrounding tissue.
