Does gout go away on its own? What is the reason why tophi disappears automatically

Usually, gout doesn't go away on its own. If the patient has symptoms such as pain, redness and swelling, he or she should seek medical attention in time.

1. Gout: Gout is a metabolic disease, mainly caused by high levels of uric acid in the body. When the body consumes too much purine substances or oversynthesizes them, as well as the decrease in renal excretion, it will lead to an increase in the concentration of uric acid in the serum and cause the occurrence of diseases. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of acute joint inflammation and chronic interstitial kidney disease.Clinical manifestations of the disease generally include fever, fatigue, headache,palpitation, nausea and vomiting, bloating and diarrhea and other uncomfortable symptoms. For those with mild disease, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken as prescribed by the doctor for relief, such as ibuprofen sustained-release capsules, diclofenac sodium sustained-release tablets and other drugs; For severe patients, it is necessary to use colchicine tablets, benzbromarone tablets and other drugs for improvement under the guidance of doctors.

2. Tophi: Tophi is the result of long-term hyperuricemia, which is mainly single or multiple white or yellowish nodules of different sizes in clinical practice, and will also be accompanied by local skin ulcers. At this time, it can be treated by surgical excision under the operation of doctors, and it is also necessary to combine oral allopurinol tablets, probenecid tablets and other uric acid-lowering drugs to control the development of the disease.

It is recommended to avoid eating foods high in purines, such as seafood and animal offal, in daily life to avoid aggravating the condition. If you feel unwell during this period, you need to go to the hospital for treatment in time.
