What triggers an acute gout attack?
An acute gout attack occurs when uric acid crystals accumulate in a joint, triggering intense inflammation and pain. These crystals form due to high levels of uric acid in the blood (hyperuricemia). Several factors can trigger or exacerbate an acute gout attack:
1. Dietary Factors:
- High-purine foods: Consuming foods rich in purines increases uric acid levels. Common culprits include:
- Red meats (e.g., beef, lamb, pork)
- Organ meats (e.g., liver, kidneys)
- Shellfish (e.g., shrimp, lobster, scallops)
- Fatty fish (e.g., sardines, mackerel, anchovies)
- Alcohol: Particularly beer and spirits, as they increase uric acid production and reduce its excretion.
- Sugary beverages: Drinks with high-fructose corn syrup, like soft drinks, promote uric acid production.
2. Dehydration:
- Insufficient fluid intake or excessive fluid loss can concentrate uric acid in the blood, making crystal formation more likely.
3. Sudden Changes in Uric Acid Levels:
- Rapid increases or decreases in uric acid levels, often caused by:
- Starting or stopping uric acid-lowering medications (e.g., allopurinol, febuxostat).
- Use of diuretics (e.g., hydrochlorothiazide, furosemide), which decrease uric acid excretion.
- Crash diets, fasting, or rapid weight loss.
4. Physical or Emotional Stress:
- Illness, surgery, trauma, or significant emotional stress can trigger an attack.
5. Joint Injury or Pressure:
- Trauma to a joint or wearing tight shoes can precipitate an attack, especially in weight-bearing joints like the big toe.
6. Medications:
- Drugs that increase uric acid levels, including:
- Diuretics (as mentioned earlier)
- Low-dose aspirin
- Immunosuppressants like cyclosporine or tacrolimus
7. Other Medical Conditions:
- Certain health issues increase the risk of gout or trigger attacks, including:
- Obesity
- High blood pressure (hypertension)
- Chronic kidney disease
- Diabetes or metabolic syndrome
- Cardiovascular disease
Prevention Tips:
- Maintain a healthy, low-purine diet.
- Stay well-hydrated.
- Avoid excessive alcohol and sugary drinks.
- Manage body weight and avoid rapid weight loss.
- Take prescribed uric acid-lowering medications as directed.
By addressing triggers and risk factors, the frequency and severity of gout attacks can often be minimized.
