Recently, there has been a sharp increase in gout patients in their 20s and 30s. Delivery food, excessive alcohol consumption, and crash dieting are major factors that raise uric acid levels. Gout is a disease in which high blood uric acid levels cause crystals to build up in the joints, leading to pain. Treatment is not complete just because the pain has subsided. It is necessary to maintain a blood uric acid level of less than 6 mg/dL through medication, weight management, sufficient water intake, and regular exercise to prevent complications.
