Question:
My wife gets swelling in her lower parts of the leg and almost tired...Pl help with medical advise?
We have been married for last 20 yrs, I have two kids. Since last two yrs my wife gets swelling in her lower parts of the leg(below Knee). She is under lot of mental tension due to it. Her age is 39 yrs. I have shown to many doctors and still continue to do so but of no use. In the morning hrs its absolutely normal.
Even when we went to our home town she was normal.
Is it any sort of alergy or any other prob? She had even tried doing yoga.
Answers:
Abnormal buildup of fluid in the ankles, feet, and legs (resulting in swelling) is called peripheral edema.
Information at the web address below is from MedlinePlus. I've found this site to be very helpful in gaining a general knowledge about various medical conditions. You could start some online research from here. I would suggest compiling information from online research or medical journals at a library, and make or print copies of the information. After you've compiled a file of what you think is best in describing your wife's condition, take it with you to a Doctor for review and another exam. If your Doctor doesn't give you adequate answers, suggested home treatments, or medical treatment, then I'd consider going to another Physician. Again, here is the web address to start from at MedlinePlus.
