Lots of experience with pain. \r\n\r\nI've been in a similar situation and I know how bad it can get but stay strong. \r\n\r\nI am not a doctor but here is why I do when I get a bad gout flare in either ankle (again not a doctor but I find this helps me):\r\n\r\n- Hot water. \r\n\r\nI'll sit on the edge of the tub and run hot water over my ankle for a few minutes. I find it helps relieve the pain, if only  while the hot water hits it. I stopped using ice because I felt it prolonged my flares. Be mindful not to run water over your skin too hot though.\r\n\r\n-CAM Walking Boot. \r\n\r\nAnyone who suffers from ankle gout should have a compression boot and cane on standby imo. Here is an example...\r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B006L8M91S/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_JHA1QM8XVNPHDF5KY757?_encoding=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1\r\n\r\nThis helps me get around the house but I also find compression helps with pain as well. I also recommend wearing a boot or high top sneaker on your other foot to compensate for your gait while using a CAM walker (helps prevent hip pain). \r\n\r\n-Colchicine. \r\n\r\nIf you're in full flare it's too late but I recommend a prescription as a precaution if your doctor feels it'd appropriate.\r\n\r\nI will take a pill if I feel a flare coming on or eat risky food (example: rare night of BBQ or drinking). Uric acid reducing medication is the most important of course but I consider this an emergency option and use them sparingly. \r\n\r\nHope this helps.","subreddit_name":"gout","author":"BBQ-Batman"},{"body":"Physician’s Assistant showed me what they recommended.
