It is possible to get gout in knees, elbows and hands along with the feet. However, having gout in large joints usually indicates chronic gout so you would have bad attacks elsewhere too.

My diet is not rich meat or shellfish and I get this periodically. The medication prescribed by your doctor will not help much. I need something to relieve the symptoms once they start. I’ve seen ads for use online but are skeptical about them. Has anyone experienced this and found something that can help me?
