Hello,

Shoes need to be checked. Should take loose fitting shoes, but still go for test to exclude gout serum oxalic acid level to be checked. Can take colchicine and antioxidant medicine and diet like ginger tomato, carrot omega 6 in fish like cord. Can take mackerel.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
