Gout is one of the most common causes of arthritis, accounting for approximately 5% of all cases of arthritis or 1 person in 100 in the U.S. Gout results from the deposition of uric acid crystals into the cartilage of a joint.

The deposition of these crystals into the cartilage around the joint is intensely inflammatory producing not only severe pain, but also redness, swelling and heat. By all estimates gout is the most painful type of arthritis; the intensity of the pain has been described by sufferers as so severe that it hurts whenever someone walks into their room.
