persons with a genetic predisposition to goutyarthritis or perhaps a problem with the kidneys can end up suffering from gout. Gout is the result of high uric acid in the blood turning into uric acid crystals which are tiny sharp things that settle in joints and other tissue causing extreme pain. gout is not contagious and can not be transferred from one person to another.
