Suggest Treatment For Pain And Redness On Toes

I have red toes and continuous non stop pain. I have been to 3 Drs and have had at least 5 blood test. They are at this point ruling out things.its not lime disease, not rumetoic arthritis , arthritis, my blood flow is supposedly good ,it s not diabetes. I have also lost 20 lbs in a month an a half. I m scheduled next week for a scan of my stomach, not sure why. Scheduled to see a Rumetogist next week. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Oh they have also done 3 rounds of steroids , no help , and I m also taking gout medicine even though they say they don t feel it s gout. Been on the gout medicine now for 8 days and has done nothing.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

Serum uric acid, ESR, calcium, magnesium levels can be done. MRI can be done if other investigations are done. You can ask your doctors for topical a analgesic or anesthetic medication for pain also. Optimising energy art of living online course is very helpful in pains of unknown origin, you can also try that if other options are failing.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
