Hi, I am Shankaran Iyer and my wife Mrs.Bhagirathi has got swelling,pain,redness on her right leg below the knee.We consulted three doctors till date and last one was a vascular surgeon.He has given medicine but informed us to go for doppler ultrasound and if required surgery/laser.We have to leave for US in 2 weeks.
Hello, Swelling in her leg below the knee could be due to decreased blood supply to the leg, or it could be due to some medications. As it could be a risk factor for heart disease, she needs thorough evaluation. She may require to undergo tests like venous Doppler and D-dimer. In my opinion, it would be better if the issue could be ad Chat Doctor.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. All the best. Thank you.
