If you are suffering an acute attack of gout then one of the non-steroidal anti inflammatory medications is the way to go !

Something like ibuprofen would be a good choice if you have no contra-indications -(Asthma or "stomach" problems).

Most GP's or General Physicians will be able to advise you further.

While in the West any GP would be experienced in management of gout I find that in Thailand the quality of GPs is often sub-par and the best docs tend to be specialists (not that all GPs are poor, but it is often the case)

Therefore I recommend you see a rheumatologist.

This one at Pattaya International Hospital looks well qualified (I have no specific feedback on him)
