Gout typically presents with pain and inflammation in the joints of the extremities, such as the big toe, ankles, and knees. It is not common for gout to first affect joints closest to the core of the body. Instead, joints in the extremities are more likely to be affected due to their cooler temperatures, which allow uric acid crystals to form and precipitate out of solution.
