The Origins of Gout Toes

Originally from gout, hyperuricemia

Gout is a metabolic disease. She is due to presence of too much uric acid in the blood leading to hyperuricemia, that is to say, an abnormal increase in the concentration of uric acid in the blood.

The causes of excess uric acid in the blood are varied:

> Some diseases (renal, hematologic …), drugs (diuretics, cytotoxic …), special situations (fasting, muscular …), causing a decrease in the elimination of uric acid or increased synthesis.

> Elsewhere it is a defect which enzyme is responsible for the excess uric acid in the blood uric acid is not metabolized and accumulates enough.

> The excess food, alcohol may promote the onset of gout toes by excess intake.

Familial cases are finally possible.
