Hi,
you are suffering from gout. It is thr disease of protein metabolism. which leads to high uric acid in your blood which is deposited in your joints and produce inflammation and pain. You need to take medicine which decrease your uric acid levels. Allopurinol is the standard medicine for that. You can take it according to your physician advice. It will decrease your uric acid level.
