Suppressed gout refers to a condition where the typical symptoms of gout, such as severe pain and inflammation in the joints, are not present despite high levels of uric acid in the blood. This can occur due to the use of medications that lower uric acid levels or when the body adapts to chronic high uric acid levels without showing acute symptoms. While it may seem less concerning, suppressed gout can still lead to joint damage over time if not managed properly. Regular monitoring and appropriate treatment are essential to prevent complications.
