Pain in both ankles after knee scope.
I recently had a knee scope done on both knees. Knees feel good but now both ankles hurt to walk. I have pain in my big toe. This has lasted 4 plus weeks. Blood test show high sedimation rate(34), elevated uric acid (7.3), and my reactive protein is (13). Anti inflammatory for 3 weeks and no change. I feel it's gout. Thoughts

Hello @calmstng,
How are you currently doing with your ankle and big toe pain? Has it improved at all? If you suspect gout, have you been able to talk with your provider about testing for gout?
You may find the following discussion started by @danaga titled,
"does anyone have gout?"

When your providers gave you your test results, did they mention gout as a possible culprit for the ankle and toe pain? Were any other suggestions provided why this would have started after your knee scope?
