Why is my foot swollen after 3 weeks?!


Question:

Why is my foot swollen after 3 weeks?

It swells but then in the morning it's fine again. By th end of the day the swelling is back. It's only on my right foot too. I have this pain that runs atop of my foot too, when it's swollen? I feel the same pain behind my knee? Do you have the same or similar problem? Doc once told me I may have fibromalygia?


Answers:

Did you had a previous injury, like sprain or something? What caused the fibromyalgia?

Swelling of the foot could also mean an edema - accumulation of fluids, that is a symptom of an underlying illness like a heart, liver, or kidney problem. It's best to go to a doctor and have the proper tests. The sooner the better.

If in the morning the swelling is gone and in the evening its back, then gravity is causing it. Are you maintaining your ideal weight? Overweight individuals have problems with the weight bearing the feet & legs have to do.
