Its attack is mainly caused by uncontrolled uric acid. The uric acid is high, and the body can't excrete the excess uric acid in time, which will form a deposit on the joints. Because of deposits, joints will gradually deform, and you will often feel pain. The pain is different, sometimes it may be the hand, sometimes it may be the foot, or it may be the knee. Although the whole body may ache once an attack occurs, many patients have found such a phenomenon that every attack always starts from the feet. Why?

Why does the foot always hurt when you have an attack?
This situation is not a good phenomenon for gout patients. Always sore feet, in fact, is the signal that the body reminds you of impaired renal function, and the degree of damage is not shallow. In order to avoid further harm, you should reduce uric acid as soon as possible to avoid frequent attacks.
Suffering from gout means that there are a lot of deposits in the body. Some of these deposits will flow to the kidneys with blood circulation. If these deposits accumulate on it, the health of the kidneys will often be greatly affected. The kidney is responsible for filtration, and these filtered sediments will be mixed with some sediments and enter the blood circulation again. Feet are the terminal of human blood circulation. If there is too much sediment in the blood, it is easy to accumulate on the feet, and toxins and garbage in the body are also easy to accumulate on the feet, so the feet are prone to pain first. Pain in the knee joint and hand joint will gradually appear after foot pain.
Gout always occurs, which is not good for the kidneys, and the kidneys are not good, which will affect the metabolism of the body. Sediments in the body will be difficult to empty, more likely to occur, forming a bad cycle. In order to prevent attacks, we must break this cycle. If you want to break this cycle, you must first raise your kidney.

How should gout patients raise their kidneys?
Gout patients should drink more water. Drinking more water can promote the circulation of water and blood in the body, accelerate the discharge of sediment, and play a role in nourishing the kidney. Besides drinking more water, you can also drink more tea, such as chicory tea, gardenia tea, pueraria lobata soaked in water, mulberry leaf soaked in water, lily tea, corn stigma soaked in water and other tea drinks, all of which have good diuretic and acid-discharging effects. It can be drunk in moderation at ordinary times, which can help the body reduce the concentration of uric acid in the body and regulate the acid-base balance in the body, which is beneficial to kidney health.
If you want to raise your kidneys, you have to control your diet. For gout patients, we should pay attention to eating less foods with high purine content, less salty, less sweet and less spicy. Eating too much of these foods will cause a metabolic burden on the body. We can eat more black sesame seeds and vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins, which can promote the discharge of sediments and have great benefits to our health.
In addition, sleep well, don't stay up late, and keep sleeping for about eight hours every day. Sleep well, metabolism will be better, can improve blood circulation, promote the discharge of garbage and sediments in the body, and is beneficial to the kidneys.
If you always have gout attacks and the pain always starts from your feet, it means that your kidneys may be damaged. You should adjust your lifestyle in time, maintain it through reasonable methods, and balance your body's metabolism, so that its damaged function may gradually recover, and gout will not occur frequently again.
