Gout Doctors in Malta

Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis caused by a build-up of uric acid crystals in the joints, producing sudden episodes of intense pain, swelling, and redness, often in the big toe. Rheumatologists diagnose gout through uric acid blood tests and joint fluid analysis, and prescribe medications to treat acute attacks and prevent recurrence. Dietary changes and urate-lowering therapy are essential for long-term gout management.
