Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My dad has been bedridden for over a week. His feet are so swollen that he has not been able to even walk. The pain is so bad that he can t even focus to do anything or even remember whether he took his medications or not. He has a history of gout, but never like this. Also his right arm I believe has been swollen and still is. He has been given so many medications, but it just seems to get worse.
What is his age and since when he is a patient of gout. What all medications he is taking, can you name them? Simply gout causing swelling in both upper and lower limbs is less likely.
