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.

Can I Take Colchicine and Ibuprofen Together?

Do you believe that we have survival instincts? Surely, this is one of the controversial psychological and physiological topic that garnered controversy. Nowadays, it is almost explainable by a solid scientific proof. Pain and stress are two of the aspects of our fight-and-flight mechanism that can force us to do something about what is causing them. At times, they come as a powerful combination when pain is the root cause of stress. However, there can be these unfortunate times that no matter how much we desire to remove the pain, we can do nothing. One such instance is during gout attacks.
