10 Symptoms of Gout in Foot
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #6: Hot
Our bodies are naturally quite warm. We are able to generate this heat by metabolizing the food we eat and we can remain warm even when we are in a cold environment. We tend to keep our bodies at a certain temperature, though, and there could be something wrong if we are too hot.
When we have gout, the tissues will become inflamed and hot. The body will also be sending lots of blood to the area to try and deal with the problem, adding to the heat. Although such heat is a symptom of gout, the other symptoms would likely have made you aware of the condition already by now.
