How to Prevent Gouty Tophi Finger

Gouty tophi only grows on people who are having hyperuricemia. Usually the tophi lumps tend to grow around the joints of the fingers, at the back of the hands or even elbow. This is because fingers has higher surface to valume ratio which results in lower temperature compared to other parts of the body. Gouty tophi finger is the result of crystallization of uric acid and lower temperature increases the rate of urate crystal formation.

A healthy person doesn't need to worry about the formation of gouty tophi finger. As a matter of fact, he/she might not even heard of the tophi at all. Usually, only people who have been suffering from gout or have high uric acid for a some time will have to worry about the formation of gouty tophi finger. Trust me, you won't like to have those ugly tophi lumps growing on your hands. They won't bring you intense unbearable pain like gout attacks do, but the disappointment and helplessness you feel every time you look at your fingers is as torturing as the painful gout attacks.

If you want to prevent gouty tophi finger, you must first bring your uric acid level back to healthy range and stabilize it there. The logic is very simple, uric acid is the building blocks of tophi lumps. When you cut off the supply of "raw material", it is impossible for gouty tophi finger to form, and the best part is that you will also be free from gout for good.

You need the help of ionized alkaline water to help neutralize and flush out the uric acid in your body. You can get ionized alkaline water either through a water ionizer of by adding active alkaline ionic calcium into your daily drinking water. Keep in mind that in order to have significant result, you will need to drink strong alkaline water of pH more than 10. How to tell if the alkaline water you are drinking is of high alkalinity? Here is a simply clue. Strong alkaline water usually has a little bit of weird fishy taste or slightly bitter.

If there is already some tiny formation of gouty tophi on your hands, then you will need to do one extra step to stop the growth of existing tophi lumps and later on dissolve it. You will need to apply "warm treatment" on the hand that has gouty tophi finger. Use your creativity, one way is to fill a small bottle with hot water and then put that bottle into a thick sock, hold that wrapped hot bottle on you hand while you are watching TV or scrolling your smartphone.

If you can consistently drink at least 2 litres of ionic alkaline water every day and the "warm treatment", you will definitely experience significant result after 2 months. Ya, 2 looooong months! Look, this is a natural method, don't expect overnight result.

How Can Gouty Tophi Be Dissolved Naturally?

The answer is... YES! But it's going to take as much time as the gouty tophus took to form to the current stage. Take a look a the video below to get an idea that gouty tophi can be dissolved naturally. But before we can talk about dissolving the existing gouty tophi, we have to focus how to stop the further formation or growth of the tophi FIRST. It makes no sense if you are try to dissolve on one end while it's still growing on the other end. First of all you have to stop eating all high purine foods or foods that are known to be able to trigger gout attack. Then you will have to start consuming more alkaline foods , generally are mostly green leafy vegetables to increase the alkaline minerals content in the body. Alkaline minerals play a very important role in 'pulling' the uric acid molecules out from the giant crystal unit of gouty tophi, alkaline mineral serves as a powerful magnet that can disengage the building blocks of the gouty tophus. Once the...

How Temperature Affects The Formation of Gouty Tophi?

Have you ever wondered why gouty tophy only found on certain parts of the body such as earlobe, fingers, elbow, knee, and almost only on the surface of the skin. Before I explain about this phenomena, I have to briefly discuss about the heat regulation of human body. Every cell in the body does generate energy and some heat in the process of metabolism, but for a healthy human body, majority of the body heat is generated in organs that are constantly working such as heart, liver, and brain, thus the center of heat is in the torso and and middle of the head. But there must be some channels for the body to dissipate excess heat in order to maintain the body temperature at 37.5 degree Celsius.  The 3 Channels of Body Heat Dissipation Heat Distribution Put a hand close to your mouth or nose and then slow breathe out, you can feel the warm air blowing on you hand, that is heat dispersion through breathing. If you dare, try to collect your pee in a paper cup and then dip...

Coffee and Gout - YES, It Does Cause Attacks!

Who doesn’t like a cup of coffee in the morning? As you wake up to the morning rush, one of the first things you look for is some caffeine to wake your cloudy mind up. Well, rushing through the morning traffic jam half-sleepy is not a wise idea anyway. Unfortunately, it is not just you that coffee wakes up. It wakes GOUT ATT­­­ACKS up as well. This article aims to explain why coffee triggers gout attacks. Study suggests that. . . Study suggests that coffee is good for gout sufferers. That is one of the many vantage point coffee-supplement vendors emphasize. While it is true that there are several studies about coffee such as a study suggesting that moderate coffee drinkers suffer less from gout , none of them proved so. This is because those are simply statistical studies. They are experiments that goes like this: Statistician asks you “How old are you? Are you a gout sufferer? Do you drink coffee? How often?” then returns after a few couple of years asking the same set of...
