friendlyadvice asked:
My friend has been in the throes of an acute gout attack affecting his left big toe, some of the foot and into his ankle. The pain is so severe that he wishes he could cut off his foot. We have tried an activated charcoal/flaxseed poultice, pain relievers, hot packs, cold packs, turmeric powder. Nothing seems to even lessen the pain. He can’t sleep, can’t walk, and can hardly think. An help would be appreciated.
The preparation H had not effect. He started colchicine yesterday and has started to feel just slight relief after 24 hours. He knows all the diet restrictions. He prefers herbal or natural solutions to health problems. I have ordered an herbal gout supplement and should receive it Monday. I think his main problem is that he wants no health effects from eating and living whatever way he chooses. Hopefully, after enough pain, he’ll learn to modify his eating habits and lifestyle. Thank you to all of you.
