Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Avoid foods that increase your chances of an attack. Increase your intake of foods that help eliminate gout. Take supplements recommended for gout.

Answer: If this is your first attack or if you haven't already made dietary changes, it's time to reduce your intake of purine-rich foods. Purines are broken down in your body to produce uric acid. Avoid these foods completely during a gout attack and for at least 1 month following the attack. After you recover, do not exceed more than 2-4 servings of any of these foods per week. They include: Alcohol Sugary soft drinks Fatty foods, such as fried foods, butter, margarine, and high-fat dairy products. Organ meats (liver, kidneys, sweetbreads (brain)). These foods have the highest levels of purines. Beef, chicken, pork,bacon, veal, venison. Anchovies, sardines, herring, mussels, codfish, scallops, trout, haddock, crab, oyster, lobster, shrimp In addition to avoiding certain foods, you can also increase foods that can protect against high uric acid levels. These include: Phytate rich foods: Phytate is a substance that seems to prevent the formation of many types of kidney stones, including those with uric acid. Phytate rich foods include beans, legumes, and whole grains. You should include 2-3 servings of beans, legumes, and grains every day. Green tea: Green tea decreases the risk of uric acid-containing kidney stones. Drink about 2-3 cups of green tea a day. Calcium-rich foods: Calcium-rich foods to include in your diet are low-fat dairy products. Tart cherry juice: Tart cherry juice has long been used in naturopathic medicine to treat gout and kidney stones. If you have an attack of gout, drink 3-4 8 ounce glasses or organic tart cherry juice every day. This should provide some relief within 12-24 hours. These supplements will not immediately help you sleep, but they will help longer-term to reduce the frequency and the duration of a gout attack. If you are already on prescription anti-gout medications, speak to your physician before taking any supplements. Also, follow manufacturer's recommendations for dosing for any supplements. Helpful supplements include: Omega-3 fatty acids, especially EPA. Bromelain is an enzyme derived from pineapples. It is often used to help treat digestive issues, but in gout, it is used as an anti-inflammatory agent. Folate, a B vitamin, inhibits the same enzyme (xanthine oxidase) that the anti-gout drug allopurinol inhibits, thus reducing uric acid levels. Quercetin is a bioflavonoid that also inhibits xanthine oxidase. Devil's claw (Harpagophytum procumbens) has been traditionally used to treat gout by reducing uric acid levels. Anyone with gout should avoid supplemental Vitamin C or niacin. Both these vitamins may increase uric acid levels.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wear a brace. Avoid sleeping on your side. Support your arms while you sleep. Keep your arm straight.

Answer:
One of the easiest things you can do to make sleeping easier if you have carpal tunnel syndrome is to wear a wrist brace to bed. This will prevent you from bending and flexing your wrist while you sleep. You may want to wear a brace during the day as well, depending on what kinds of activities typically cause you pain. You can buy a brace at any drug store, or your doctor may suggest that you have a custom one made for you. Although it hasn't been definitively proven, sleeping on your side may be associated with a higher risk of developing carpal tunnel syndrome. This is likely due to the fact that the wrist is more likely to be compressed in this position. If you sleep on your side, try sleeping on your back to avoid further compressing your wrist as you sleep. It's important to think about where you normally place your arms while you sleep and whether or not this may be worsening your symptoms. Try to avoid sleeping with either arm underneath you or your pillow, as this may worsen your carpal tunnel syndrome. Propping your arms up on pillows while you sleep may help relieve tension and reduce pain. If you are sleeping on your side, make sure the side affected by carpal tunnel is on top. Place a pillow in front of you and place the affected hand on the pillow. You may need to experiment with the height of the pillow to find the most comfortable position for you. Bending your elbow may increase the compression on your nerve, which can make your symptoms worse. As much as possible, try to keep your elbow straight throughout the night. You may want to try wrapping a towel around your elbow so that it is difficult to bend. This may help you train yourself to keep your arm straight at night.
