Dear Lybrate user
you need to avoid proteins. There is big no to soyabean. Your uric acid level is high, so avoid curd and dry fruits .Once it is under limit, you may take these but in very less qiantity. Repeated test is required. You may go for homeopthic treatment. It is very effective in reducing such pain and swelling.In acute gout attacks painkillers and appropriate steroids help in allopathic treatment. Colchicine alone is not sufficient.
