yes, shite ton of alieve will do a little bit, but go to a doc in the box get the steroid shot and go get the script filled for the 7 day steroid pack, trust me it will knock it out a hell of a lot quicker than toughing it out with home remedies.

Level teaspoon of baking soda in 6 oz water.
Twice a day at the first twinge of a flair up.
You have to get and keep your ph balance at 7 or better for your body to shed the crystal forming environment.

Apple cider vinegar daily will also help.

Stop drinking beer until you’re feeling better, or longer.

Take one black cherry tablet a day, forever. $12 a month.

Don’t go cheap with the Black Cherry. You need great quality like Natures Plus brand.

After it's cleared up get on allopurinol. Don't stop taking it.

Stop drinking alcohol and eating red meat. Drink a shite ton of cherry juice and dilute some apple cider vinegar a few times a day.

For me that stalls the pain but ultimately I have to go to the doctor every time for a prescription. It’s worth it.

Just go to the doctor. Steroid shot or indomethacin is your friend.

It's effective, but can really tear up your stomach. Usually a few days of indomethacin will clear it up.

Also, regard yourself as a lab rat and over time, you will isolate your triggers and best prevention methods.

I found Earl Grey tea, black or green to be a major trigger. Beer less so and oysters and seafood even less, so I enjoy those in moderation.

The earl grey teas? Never again.

I've tried that because other people swear by it. For me it wasn't very effective. Most effective thing I've used is the black cherry extract pills 3 times a day with the baking soda and water as soon as you think you might be having a flair up.

A major key is getting the Ph strips and testing throughout the days of flair ups and keeping the level above 7, until the pain subsides.

That’s where the baking soda and ACV help turn the tide while you avoid known food triggers.

Gout is the ultimate first world problem. There’s a reason it’s called the “disease of kings.” I get a couple flare-ups a year. They fricking suck. Horrible pain. But the other 360 days of the year I drink beer and eat good food.

More effective than colchicine but made me really dizzy. If you take that stuff you have to be careful to eat enough food and drink water.

Honestly the black cherry extract pills 3 times a day and baking soda and water at first hint of an attack has been the best thing for me. Cuts the time way down.

Not yet, but my dad, grandad, and one of my dad's brothers had or have gout, so I'm guessing it's only a matter of time for me
