Gout in all the Weird Places - 08/31/23
I've had gout in some non-traditional places. Knees and elbow. Don't get it very often any more as I'm on the daily Allopurinol pill (300 mg).
Was doing some work this morning laying on my side and eradicating dust bunnies under the bed. I'm about half way done and my hip starts hurting pretty good. First thought is - I got a hip pointer somehow, but there was no blunt force to this area. It got to the point where I could barely walk and even sitting in recliner was pretty painful. Decided to take some Meth (Indomethicin) which I have a healthy supply of on hand. First dose started to alleviate the pain and the second dose made it go away. No swelling or redness at the hip joint.
I was being a good boy (I think) and not eating any trigger foods or beer and drinking plenty of H2O.
Where's the strangest place its affected you?
