What does GOUTY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
medical
Affected by or relating to gout, a painful form of arthritis caused by excess uric acid.
Gouty describes joints, most often the big toe, swollen and inflamed by gout, as well as a person who suffers from the condition. Older writing often used gouty to caricature wealthy, overindulgent characters, since gout was long associated with rich food and heavy drinking. Modern medicine treats gout as a metabolic disorder rather than a matter of lifestyle alone.
