Is A Bout Of Brusitis On The Elbow A Symptom Of Gout?
Brief Answer:
Gout not likely.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Gout is less likely to affect the elbow. It affects other join ts also. The problem you have is restricted to elbow only. It is more likely to be due to bursitis. MRI scan of the elbow will help in confirmation of diagnosis.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
