Heat Can Worsen Your Gout Pain. Gout is inflammatory arthritis that affects mostly older men. It is caused by a build up of uric acid, which is a normal acid in the blood stream. Uric acid is usually dissolved in the blood and passed out through the kidneys, but a build up of gout causes urate crystals to form around joints. An excess of uric acid, hyperuricemia, sometimes causes no pain. Once levels get severely high, crystals form in the joints. If not controlled, gout can cause serious damage to the joints and tendons. What Are The Symptoms Of Gout? Gout is fairly common and is characterized by intense joint pain, sometimes so severe that the weight of a sheet can hurt.
