    Big toe soreness

    I had what certainly appeared to be a gout attack almost 2 weeks ago. Big toe joint got inflamed and red, tender to the touch, and a couple of days of aching like a tooth ache. However, it was not super tender to the touch like I have heard about. Had blood tests a week and a half later with uric acid levels at 6.2 (normal). Gout in the family. So two weeks later and the toe is still very sore and not as bad as during the attack but still makes walking difficult especially when I put on my work boots.
    Is this normal and I’m just wondering how long before this soreness will go away.
