Hi there! Thank you for your question.
Maintaining hydration in the body is very important for everyone and not just focused on those with gout. The human body is mostly made up of water and water is responsible for pumping toxins in the body and bringing nutrients to the body cells.
In gout related cases, excess uric acid will build up in the joints causing the onset of the disease to be excreted in the urine. So, when the body is hydrated, it is able to expel uric acid with frequent urination so that it will not accumulate in the joints.
I advise you to seek and consult any doctor if the symptom worsen. If you have any more enquiries, you can click on the link ( DoctorOnCall ) and speak to our doctors in private and get the consultation you need on the phone. Thank you.
