So I've been taking zyloric for my uric acid because my levels were pretty high when tested. I've got gout on my toe, and it's been really painful. I'm wondering, what medicine should I take for gout? How long does it usually take for it to get better and feel normal again?

I've been having severe back pain for a while now lower back, middle, even up to my shoulders. It's been two years since my uterus was removed due to stage 1 cervical cancer, and my follow-up ultrasounds every three months show everything's normal, including my ovaries. The X-rays are clear too, but the pain won't go away. It's really affecting my daily life and mental peace. What could be causing this constant back pain even though all my reports are fine? Any suggestions on how to manage it?

MRI is advised,post share the report.

I've been dealing with a really sharp pain in two of my left foot fingers for the last couple of days. Its weird because there's no swelling, and I haven't injured myself or anything. A few years ago, I got some physiotherapy treatment for ankylosing spondylitis at the Indian Spinal Centre in Delhi. Could this foot pain be connected to that, or is it something completely different? I'm just trying to figure out if it's something I should be worried about.

That could be related to same Issue, visit Orthopaedician for evaluation and appropriate management
