Bladder and Gout Treatment
There are several signs that can lead a person to seek gout treatment. Gout is a class of arthritis. It can cause an attack of abrupt searing pain, stiffness, and inflammation in a joint, usually a big toe. These attacks can occur over and over if gout is not treated. Over time, they can damage joints, tendons, and other tissues. This condition is most common in men, and it is caused by too much uric acid in the blood. Most of the time, having too much uric acid is not detrimental. Many people with high levels in their blood never suffer from gout. But when uric acid levels in the blood are too high, the uric acid may form hard crystals in the joints. Thee odds of getting gout are higher if a person is overweight, drinks too much alcohol, or eats too much meat and fish that are high in chemicals called purines. Some medicines, like diuretics, can also trigger gout. The most common sign of gout is a nighttime attack of swelling, tenderness, redness, and sharp pain in the big toe. Gout attacks can also take place in the foot, ankle, or knees. The attacks can last a few days or many weeks before the pain subsides. Another attack may not happen for quite a while. The accumulation of uric acid that leads to a gout attack can still harm joints. When it comes to gout treatment, a doctor will ask questions about symptoms and do a physical exam, as well as take a sample of fluid from a joint to look for uric acid crystals. This is the most fitting way to test for this illness. To stop a gout attack, a doctor can provide a shot of corticosteroids, or prescribe medicines such as Allopurinol or Zyloprim.
An overactive bladder is a condition that arises due to a sudden, involuntary contraction of the muscle in the wall of the urinary bladder. Overactive bladder causes an acute and relentless need to urinate, or urinary urgency. Overactive bladder is also cited as urge incontinence and is a form of urinary incontinence, an unintentional loss of urine. Overactive bladder is especially common in the elderly, however, it should not be considered a normal part of aging. Overactive bladder symptoms include frequent urination, urgency of urination, and urge incontinence. This disorder may lead to significant social, psychological, occupational, domestic, physical, and sexual problems. As mentioned before, these symptoms should not be construed as a normal part of aging. Overactive bladder treatment depends on the aptitudes of the patient. Medications for overactive bladder include Ditropan and Oxibutynin.
