Gout

Gout is more commonly found in men, because men have higher uric acid in their blood than women. Uric acid is made in the body which is usually harmless. Some of the uric acid passed out with the stools (faeces) whereas remaining with urine. With gout the amount of uric acid in the blood builds up and over the time the level may become too high that may form the tiny grit-like crystals of uric acid. Over production or under excretion of uric acid both causes Hyperuricemia that create inflammation in the big toe and also badly affect other joints in the body.
