گائوٹ جوڑوں کے درد کی ایک قسم ہے جو کہ جسم میں یورک ایسڈ کی زیادتی کے باعث سامنے آتی ہے۔ اس کی علامات میں متاثرہ جوڑوں کی سرخی، درد، اور سوجن شامل ہیں۔ اس بیماری سے سب سے زیادہ پائوں کے انگوٹھے کا جوڑ متاثر ہوتا ہے لیکن یہ جسم کے دوسرے حصوں جیسے کہ کہنی، ہاتھ، پائوں اور گھٹنے کے جوڑوں کو بھی متاثر کر سکتا ہے۔ اس سے بچائو میں علاج اور احتیاط دونوں ہی اہم ہیں۔

Gout usually occurs in the big toe but can also occur in the knees, ankles, wrists, and fingers. This type of arthritis is more prevalent in men as compared to women. Gout has no ultimate cure but the disease can be managed using medication and self-management.
