Second gout flare lasting longer

[joseph]

I had my second flare up, which lasted more than three weeks. The First one passed within 3 days.

Is there any Connection with my effort to do small Works, thus injuring more the big toe?

Thanks, joseph, and welcome to GoutPal Interactive.

There is more than one connection, and I need a few more facts about your gout before I can answer them. It’s best to login and keep your personal gout facts in your profile. That way, everyone can see important information that can help them keep responses relevant.

If you don’t want to give personal information, I can still help. Search for [I]gout and exercise[/I] using the search box near the top of each page. You can then ask for clarification, if you need it, after your read the search results. Please be careful to refer to specific pages when you ask your questions.

If you want a more personal response, I need more information from you.

How long since your first flare?
Is your second flare still giving you pain?
Can you give more details about what you mean by “small Works?”
What are your recent uric acid blood test results, if any.

Mobility and gout can be difficult to explain. Everybody is affected by gout differently, and everybody has different ideas about normal mobility, gentle exercise, and strenuous exercise. It’s easy to find the scientific connections between exercise and gout. It’s harder to put these into a personal context, but I can help you do that if you tell me more about [B]Your[/B] gout.
