Can Soreness And Redness Of The Big Toe Be Indicative Of Gout?

Yes, I woke up this morning with my left inside of big toe really sore and red on the inside bottom. I had arthroscopic knee surgery in my left knee from a tore miniscus on Dec. 31st, 2015. The dr. said he cleaned a lot of arthritis up. It sounds like gout to me. What can I do to or take since it s the weekend?
