How to ease gout pain?

Question

yes i was wondering if there are any certified nurses around that can help me with my gout problem. yes its sad I'm only 25 years old and i have gout which usually only occurs in older men which is a form of arthritis. i usually get my gout in my ankles and the pain is so severe. i have recently just gotten a job and don't want to be at risk of losing this job because of my gout. I'm trying to do the best i can to take care of my wife and then this comes along again. so I'm looking for an experts advice so i can at least make the gout pain tolerable so i can still work. so if someone could please tell me ways of soothing the pain and ways of preventing this i would greatly appreciate it thanks :)
