There are several over the counter medicines that work very well for gouty arthritis. which is caused by a deposition of urate crystals in the joints. Its very painful. The classic joint involved is the big toe and it appears swollen and red.
As a physician I often recommend ALLEVE 200 mg tabs take 2 tabs every 12 hours. Avoid alcohol drink plenty of water.
