Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis caused by high levels of uric acid in the blood which leads to painful swollen joints. It is triggered by factors like diet, alcohol consumption, medications and other health conditions. Symptoms include sudden attacks of red, tender, hot joints. Diagnosis involves testing blood and joint fluid for uric acid crystals. Treatments include medications, dietary changes and lifestyle modifications to control gout symptoms and prevent further attacks.
