Gout is a chronic disease of the joints. It often manifests itself in acute form.
Following are the symptoms of gout in acute form:

The toe becomes tender, hot and swollen in few hours.
The attack usually occurs in the midnight or in early morning. Apart from big toe other joints can also be affected.

Main cause of gout is deposition of uric acid crystals in joints and kidney. There is either increased production of uric acid or there may be decreased excretion of uric acid from the kidney.
