When Pain Crystallizes 😣💎

Gout isn’t just “bad joint pain” — it’s URIC ACID CRYSTALS literally forming inside your body. And when it becomes chronic tophaceous gout, those crystals pile up into visible lumps called TOPHI.

⬇️ Here’s what you need to know ⬇️

---

🧠 WHAT IS A TOPHUS?

· It’s a chalky, white deposit of uric acid crystals under the skin
· Can form in joints, ears, elbows, fingers, even tendons
· Looks like lumps or bumps — sometimes breaks through skin 😳

🔥 THE REALITY
Without treatment, tophi can:
✅ Cause joint damage & deformities
✅ Lead to chronic pain & stiffness
✅ Increase risk of infections if skin breaks
✅ Limit mobility & independence

---

🩺 THIS IS NOT FOREVER
Modern treatment can:
✔️ Shrink & dissolve tophi
✔️ Prevent new crystal buildup
✔️ Restore joint function
✔️ Stop flares for good

💊 Key treatments include:

· Uric acid-lowering meds (like allopurinol, febuxostat)
· Diet & lifestyle changes (low-purine diet, hydration)
· Regular monitoring with a rheumatologist

💬 If you have these lumps — don’t ignore them. Don’t be ashamed.
They’re a sign your body needs help managing uric acid.
See a specialist. Treatment works.
