Do they have Salonpas there? I use this topically for arthritis all the time. They will even take down bruises.
Get the ones with methyl salicyclate in them.
Salonpas are big in Asia... so you should be able to find them.
I don't know about the gout... Real uric acid gout will cause redness and heat in the area. But Pseudogout will not necessarily.
