Most gout starts in the area of the big toe, but this isn't always true. It can start in other areas of the foot or ankle, or in just about any area of the body. I've talked about gout starting in different joints in the Gout Symptoms sections, where I also plan to look at other causes of pain that might be confused with gout. But whether it's foot pain, ankle pain, knee pain or gout anywhere else, it's a pain. It has inspired JIM from London. Perhaps you'll be inspired to write something. Ache, ache, acheAche, ache, ache, In my frail, old bones O Gout! And I would that my tongue could utter The pains that make me shout out! O well for the fisherman's boy, That he shouts with his sister at play! O well for the sailor lad, That he sings in his boat on the bay! And the uric acids sink down To their haven in my big toe; But O the touch of a light bed-sheet, And a gasp that is tortured so! Ache, ache, ache In the ends of my feet, O Gout! But the tender grace of a day that is dead Will never come back to….Ouch! -JIM from London What do you think of this gout pain poem? Better than the original or worse? There's only 2 choices this time - if you don't know, don't vote. Of course, you can always send me a message about this poem, gout toe or anything else. Leave Ache. Ache, Ache (the worlds first Gouty Foot Pain Poem?) to browse the rest of Goutertainment
