Medical safety comes first. GoutSense is educational, not medical advice. A first or uncertain hot, swollen joint should be medically assessed. Fever or feeling very unwell with a hot swollen joint can require urgent assessment. Do not start, stop or change prescribed medication based on GoutSense content.
