Gout

Are You Convinced Your Foot Pain Is Gout?

Well, I’m here to tell you you’re probably wrong!

Our Podiatrists in Scarborough get SO MANY people coming into the clinic with foot pain thinking they have gout. 99 times out of 100 the pain is caused by a different problem, one that can be easily fixed.

In the foot, gout usually affects the big toe and sometimes the ankle.

The pain appears very rapidly, lasts 23-48 hours and disappears again.

I have a feeling your foot has been sore for more than a day or two, am I right?

Gout is caused by crystals that deposit in the joints because of high levels of acid in the blood.

But like I said, I’m 99% sure you don’t have gout.

Call our friendly Perth Podiatrists for an appointment so we can fix your painful feet once and for all.

Don’t put up with gout, that probably isn’t gout, for any longer and give us a call today.
