2. Lingering Discomfort

Even though gout can go away without actual treatment, the discomfort that comes with it can take a long time before it actually goes away. There is always a possibility that those suffering from gout but don’t actually know they have it, might think that it’s something else. If you find that you have lingering discomfort in your joints and don’t know what it is, plus it’s something that keeps coming back, you could very well be suffering from gout.
