Symptom #10: No Symptoms

For some very lucky people, gout causes no symptoms at all. No pain, no swelling, nothing. It can take weeks, months or even years before the condition is discovered, with the patient being blissfully unaware up until it is. Of course, this will be of little consolation to those that do experience the symptoms listed above.

In some cases, gout is discovered by chance. For example, a standard check-up and blood test can reveal a high level of uric acid in the blood. If you have discovered you have gout and you have no symptoms, you should still get it treated. You don’t know when the symptoms might begin, at which point you will regret not dealing with it sooner.
