Dude, this is insane.
Gout is caused by crystals forming in your body due to high levels of uric acid...it isnt an infection.
You can get it at 20 years old, its caused mainly from your diet which may just mean too much red meat, seafood or alcohol and can build up over days weeks months and years.
In the older days royalty used to get it due to rich living.
You dont just get it in one area of your foot...it can happen in your hands, fingers, knees, feet, toes and even your shoulders...in short it can occur anywhere.
early symptoms are usually in the feet and can mean slight pain when standing/walking or just putting weight in that area.
You just need to get a uric acid test which can be done the same day and is just a blood test. Doctor will give you pills and the pain can be gone in 30mins....just need to change some of the things you eat / drink.
Fruit, alcohol, beans, seafood and red meat as well as other things can cause it.

Yeah if its sensitive to touch and slightly reddish then that may well be gout or pseudo gout...pictures must be extreme...wont change your body unless you have it for many years and no medication
edit: also fructose from drinks or food can cause it too...could be a fruit juice youre drinking. in the states they now show NO FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP under the healthy drinks.

you dont 'look up' gout...
you just need to take a test for uric acid which is the first thing a doc will do when you tell them that you have pain in your foot and its sensitive to the touch.
just go to the docs.

@Ashtonian ask your maid to pick up some tramadol / diclofenac / arcoxia on the way home...just a 50mg pill should sort you out.
Then see the doc tmw.

Well if it is gout that is the wrong attitude to take. It wont get better without pills and you wont be able to walk.

Pseudo gout is well known to have a rapid onset. As zat said the "well to do" of yesteryear would get it . Could even get a sudden episode in the morning before a battle and have to fight and bear it. Luckily they would usually be on horseback so the strain would be minimised.lol ok, it isn't gout then. was fine before i left yesterday and when i got to work had sore foot.

I will give it another day before deciding to have it looked at.
If it is still as bad tomorrow then yes i will ring up and get an app next available.
As i'm not walking much in work i'm hoping this counts as rest for it.
