Suddenly got swollen feet and ankles with bruise-like marks on feet .Had water tablets to no avail. Am awaiting abdoman scan with suspected gallstones. Are the painful legs and ankles part of the symptoms?  Should I mention this to doctor.  I am an old lady
Hello, Sudden swelling in legs can be because of several reasons, yes you have to mention to your doctor, and you have to be thoroughly examined for (anemia, kidney problem, liver problems, heart related problems or local joint problems), USG scan can tell you about the kidney and liver status, but consulting your doctor and getting your complete tests done to rule out other causes is advisable, but gall stones alone will not cause the swelling. Hope I could help you. Thank you.
