    Gout typically progresses through several stages: 1. Asymptomatic hyperuricemia for 10-30 years with uric acid levels over 6.8 mg/dL but no clinical symptoms. 2. The first acute gout attack most often affects the big toe (podagra). 3. An asymptomatic intercritical phase between acute attacks. Over 80% experience a second flare within 2 years. 4. Chronic arthritis gout and joint deformities can develop over time if untreated, along with tophi formation. However, the progression varies between patients.

    Although most untreated cases of gout progress to chronic tophaceous gout, the course varies considerably from one patient to another. Whereas some
    patients experience only one or two attacks of acute gouty arthritis during their lifetime, over 80% have a second flare within 2 years of the first. It is
    quite unusual for tophi to develop in a patient with no history of acute gouty arthritis.

    The initial episode of acute gouty arthritis usually follows 10–30 years of asymptomatic hyperuricemia, and there is no evidence that damage occurs to
    any organ system during that time.
