What symptom does gout have

summary

Gout is a very common disease now. My grandmother has suffered from gout for several years. Now I will share with you the symptoms of gout

What symptom does gout have

First, uric acid nephrolithiasis: 10% - 25% of gout patients can have uric acid nephrolithiasis. Some patients even take uric acid nephrolithiasis as the first symptom. Small sediment like stones are easy to be excreted with urine, and patients may have no symptoms. Larger stones often cause renal colic and hematuria.

Second, acute renal failure: what complications can gout cause? A large number of urate crystals are blocked in the renal tubules, renal pelvis and ureter, causing urinary tract obstruction, resulting in patients with sudden oliguria or even anuria. If not handled in time, it can rapidly develop into acute renal failure, and even cause death.

Third, kidney stones: according to statistics, gout patients are about 1000 times more likely to have kidney stones than normal people. Because the more acid and acid-base in the urine, the more prone to kidney stones. Therefore, more boiled water and baking soda must be taken to prevent kidney stones.

matters needing attention

Gout patients should pay special attention to the diet, eat more protein containing food, less purine containing food, try to eat less meat, if you must eat, should be boiled meat soup. This is because purine is easily soluble in water and the content of purine in soup is very high. Although the protein content of bean products is high, it is not suitable for gout patients because it contains high purine components, such as soybeans, tofu, dried beans and so on.
