well the doctors do not accept this fact since this has not yet published in their books. In my case, i had a gout attack and i was given Neproxin which helped to reduce the pain in three days. i was totally out of pain when i went to doctor three days afterwards. he also gave me vitamin b 12 as its level was low (not as part of gout treatment but for some other problem of mine with fatigue and dizziness symptoms). the pain of gout again started and since then its been two months that i am struggling to reduce the pain.

Gout's scientific name is metabolic arthritis
Gout is caused by the crystallization of excess puric acid near joints and in the feet. Some natural foods that are believed to help reduce arthritis gout include milk, yogurt and black cherries. Foods which worsen gout include red meats, organ meats, anchovies and other protein rich foods.
Gout is nothing like arthritis and therefore arthritis medicine would do nothing. Gout is high uric acid in your blood stream crystalizing. Once it is crystalized, it stays in the bloodstream and stabs at nerves. Arthritis is stress on bones and therefore very different.
It does not matter where you have it it is still called gout.
