WHAT IS GOUT? Gout is a common and complex form of arthritis that can affect anyone. It's characterized by sudden, severe attacks of pain, swelling, redness and tenderness in one or more joints, most often in the big toe. An attack of gout can occur suddenly, often waking you up in the middle of the night with the sensation that your big toe is on fire. The affected joint is hot, swollen and so tender that even the weight of the bedsheet on it may seem intolerable.

Gout symptoms may come and go, but there are ways to manage symptoms and prevent flares.

Symptoms The signs and symptoms of gout almost always occur suddenly, and often at night. They include: • • • •

Intense joint pain. Gout usually affects the big toe, but it can occur in any joint. Other commonly affected joints include the ankles, knees, elbows, wrists and fingers. The pain is likely to be most severe within the first 4 to 12 hours after it begins.

Lingering discomfort. After the most severe pain subsides, some joint discomfort may last from a few days to a few weeks.

Later attacks are likely to last longer and affect more joints.

Inflammation and redness. The affected joint or joints become swollen, tender, warm and red.

Limited range of motion. As gout progresses, you may not be able to move your joints normally.

Risk factors You're more likely to develop gout if you have high levels of uric acid in your body.

Factors that increase the uric acid level in your body include: • • • • • • •

Diet. Eating a diet rich in red meat and shellfish and drinking beverages sweetened with fruit sugar (fructose) increase levels of uric acid, which increase your risk of gout. Alcohol consumption, especially of beer, also increases the risk of gout.

Weight. If you're overweight, your body produces more uric acid and your kidneys have a more difficult time eliminating uric acid.

Medical conditions. Certain diseases and conditions increase your risk of gout. These include untreated high blood pressure and chronic conditions such as diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and heart and kidney diseases.

Certain medications. Low-dose aspirin and some medications used to control hypertension — including thiazide diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and beta blockers — also can increase uric acid levels. So can the use of anti-rejection drugs prescribed for people who have undergone an organ transplant.

Family history of gout. If other members of your family have had gout, you're more likely to develop the disease.

Age and sex. Gout occurs more often in men, primarily because women tend to have lower uric acid levels. After menopause, however, women's uric acid levels approach those of men. Men are also more likely to develop gout earlier — usually between the ages of 30 and 50 — whereas women generally develop signs and symptoms after menopause.

Recent surgery or trauma. Experiencing recent surgery or trauma can sometimes trigger a gout attack. In some people, receiving a vaccination can trigger a gout flare.

When to see a doctor If you experience sudden, intense pain in a joint, call your doctor. Gout that goes untreated can lead to worsening pain and joint damage.

Seek medical care immediately if you have a fever and a joint is hot and inflamed, which can be a sign of infection.

POWER AND WATER SECURITY SOLUTIONS IN ST FRANCIS BAY with The St Francis Bay Property Owners Association We all know that our area will have power and water shortages for the foreseeable future.

We cannot rely on Eskom for power or our dams to supply sufficient water.

The only way to fix these problems is to climb in and fix them ourselves.

The St Francis Property Owners Association have published a digital booklet of solar power and water harvesting solutions to enable homeowners to secure their own energy and water supplies which is now available on our website.

Then, to supplement the power and water security solutions, the SFPO has also researched various power and water-saving devices, including gas geysers, electric geyser controllers, water tap restrictors and LED lights.

This booklet also contains information on potential tax savings and insurance considerations. In addition, there are details of a coordination and administration service and a list of recommended suppliers.
