Persons that have gout usually have to keep in mind that they are likely to suffer from flare ups of the disease for life. and that it would be wise for their healths sake to keep this in mind by keeping purines down in their diet. uric acid crystals can build up in parts of the body other then joints including the kidneys so a persons predisposition to gout should be taken very seriously.
