My ankles and calves have been swollen, I thought it was due to the heat we have had and being on them at work for long hours. I keep them up at night but the swelling is not going down. If I push on them the indentation stays there for a minute or so. They have been this way for about a week and a half.
Hi, Thanks for your query. There are numerous causes and conditions that produce swelling in the ankles and calves. A few important causes are chronic venous insufficiency, Heart related issues, kidney disorders, liver problems, water retention etc. A thorough and detailed evaluation along with a few investigations are needed to establish the correct diagnosis. I suggest you to consult a General physician for further evaluation and management. I do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
