Hello, I have had swollen feet and ankles for the past 2 weeks, I was given a strong diuretic and have been taking for 4 days now, but the swelling has not gone down at all. I have also developed some bruising on my ankles in the past 2 days...and they are painful.
HAI. U have not mentioned your age.your swelling could be due to many reasons, like rheumatoid arthritis, cardiac problems, localized infection, thyroid problems, deep vein thrombosis, 8f course furosemide helps, u should never keep your feet in dependent position, to improve your blood circulation. Pls undergo a cardiac evaluation and limb venous Doppler
