Gout is often described as a real pain in the neck. My Neck Pain With Gout article explains how gout pain can affect the neck. This picture shows which joints are affected by the example gout case.
Neck Pain With Gout Xray Diagram Details

I used this image to represent spinal joint numbering. The diagram is not related to the study that shows sore joints from gout pain in the neck.
I have used it to explain the joint numbering sequence described in the study. Uric acid deposits were found to have eroded the neck facet joints of C2/C3, C3/C4 and C4/C5, i.e. the area I have numbered C2 to C5.
