Gout

Gout is available through SUNY Downstate's Transparent Access Plan at a published cash price, paid when you book.

Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis that results from the accumulation of uric acid crystals in the joints. It typically affects one joint at a time, often the big toe, and causes intense pain, swelling, and redness in the affected area. Gout is the result of a metabolic disorder that leads to elevated levels of uric acid in the bloodstream, a condition known as hyperuricemia. When uric acid levels become too high, uric acid crystals can form in the joints, causing acute gout attacks.| Explore Comprehensive Podiatry Services with Mishe's Expert Providers.
