Why does skin peel after gout
Joint Replacement Surgeon
Answered on 17th Jan '24
Skin peeling associated with a gout is possibly due to the inflammation and swelling characterizing this condition. Gout is associated with the deposition of uric acid crystals in joints that causes painful inflammation. In severe conditions, skin overlying the affected joints may become stretched and ruined because of swelling that can lead to peeling as soon as inflammation reduces. Secondly, some drugs administered to patients suffering from gout in an effort to control the problem may have negative effects on a patient’s skin. Consulation with a doctor is necessary to identify the exact reason for skin peeling in relation to gout and get proper advice about treating and dealing with it.
