Q: Just Diagnosed W/ Small Tophus, Advice...

Hello.
I'm 34 and have suspected I have gout or some sort of arthritis for several years. Recently, I started running again, and increased from every other day, to every day. After three days of the changed schedule, my foot became slightly sore, so I stopped running. Two days later, after being on the road a lot, and being dehydrated, my foot became extremely angry. It was angry for about a week before I went to see someone about it, although I was on 400mg naproxen 2x day and was drinking tons of water.
Anyway, I finally went to see the doc, and she prescribed allopurinol and colchicine, which seem to be working, but i've been left with a small tophus on my big toe (less than the size of a dime).
I guess my questions are, will this tophus go away, if so, how long will it take? And will I be able to run again?

Thanks!
Justin

Impotency can be caused by psycho-emotional reasons. It seems that your ex girlfriend “took” from you something more that your virginity. It seems that you love her in some special way that is not the case with other girls. If you are so fond of sex , you might consider calming down and settling with your ex girlfriend and to have regular, safe sex with her. Maybe you will discover what it is that is so special in her. If you want to be with her any more, you can ask for expert help from a psychiatrist or mental health professional about treating impotency.
