Chronic Tophi With Gout - It Can Be REVERSED...

What is the worst agony a gout sufferer experiences? Is it the burning pain? Is it the swelling? The restraint caused by the pain of moving? Surely, it is the combination of all of them. As if the combined force of these villains is not enough, these villains become IMMORTALIZED. Chronic gout. The mere fact that you suffer from it makes you cringe with pain.

What more if Chronic gout comes as a package deal with tophi? This article aims to explain chronic gout with tophi.

Gout

Chronic gout, as its name suggests, is believed to be gout that will NEVER go away, in a sense that a person will get gout flare-ups all through-out his lifetime (believe me when I say that not all beliefs are true).

To those who is not aware of gout, it is a very cruel disease characterized by extreme burning pain and usually swelling in the affected joint. It can be caused by several factors revolving around uric acid, such as the Lesch-Nyhann Syndrome. It can also be caused by too much purine in the diet, because uric acid comes from purine.

So how does gout happens?

Ironically, this giant of a pain originates from something very small. The cause is even literally microscopic, namely URIC ACID CRYSTALS.

Normally, the liver, along with its friends in the excretory system, can dispose uric acid without difficulty. However, if the task at hand is heavy (such as when other ACIDS are to be flushed out), it is another story. Uric acid has to be temporarily stored while they can not be flushed out by the liver, and so that the body will not suffer from high acidity.

At first, the uric acid is stored at the interstitial fluids, THE HABITAT OF YOUR CELL (the thought of an acidic environment or your cells is fear-inducing. Imagine yourself swimming in a vat of acids).
Once the interstitial space is full, uric acid will be forced deeper into places that are not supposed to contain them, such as the synovial fluids in your joints. Eventually, uric acid will crystallize, your neutrophils attacking them as you cringe in pain. Ouch. Gout attack.

We have only discussed the “gout” part of the “chronic gout with tophi”, so hang in there! (SPOILER ALERT: GOUT CAN BE REVERSED)

Chronic Gout With Tophi

What if gout becomes EVERLASTING? In a sense that you will suffer from chains of gout attack for the rest of your life. Unfortunately, it is possible. Worse, the uric acid crystals begin showing itself piercing the skin!

Tophus (or tophi when plural) is the term used for the uric acid crystal, usually when it begins to protrude. It can appear not only in the joints but also in the earlobes, anywhere in the skin and in very rare cases, in the eyelids, spine, inside the ear and even in the male private part! Oucch.  Surely, it is painful and very obstructing.

Why Does Chronic Gout Happens?

A common cause of gout is the Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome, a genetic disorder that causes too much uric acid. More likely, the cause is the presence of excessive acids. Remember what I said? The task of the liver becomes heavier when excess acids are to be flushed out. In short, as long as there are excess acids, you will suffer from gout. As long as there are excess acids, there will be more tasks to occupy the liver, giving it less chance to flush out the unwanted uric acid.

So how does we reverse gout? We reverse the presence of excess acids! We reverse acidosis
See how reversing acidosis will help you?

Less Acids = Liver Can Dispose Uric Acid = FREEEEEDOM FROM GOUT
Eliminate the root and surely, you will recover in no time. Eliminate acidosis, reverse your gout!

  1. I have suffered for nearly 15 years with gout and tophi in my toes, the only relieve and reversal of damage to my joints was from febuxostat, I have changed diet completely, only problem drug companies know this so they make it impossible to afford with no insurance.

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...
