Avatar f tn I am concerned about the possibity of ankle swelling with Norvasc, so I will discuss that with my doctor. Thank you again.
Avatar f tn s point of view who has leg swelling and lung fluid, these are serious symptoms and you should check the condition as soon as possible. I'll mention that when my lungs start filling with fluid, I will choke when laying flat (sleeping) and I experience what I call 'cotton-mouth', a foamy, frothy phlem in my throat. Get expert advice and keep us informed.
Avatar f tn readings is very good, 110/70. But eversince I started the Norvasc, my left leg is swelling and it is becoming worst. I'd like to ask my Doctor to discontinue the Norvasc. Is there any other calcium blocker that doesn't cause swelling? I've already taken Zestril (ace inhibitor) with the Diovan before. Can you please tell me what other good medications to be taken with the Diovan. I appreciate your help.

250398 tn?1225263291 Indeed, in recent weeks, when I have had situations where I have had to sit for long periods of time, such as basically all day in meetings, I have had noted swelling in my ankle. No other issues of swelling though. So, I should follow-up with a doctor, correct? My issue though is that I work out of the country and am not in an area where I can find medical help that is fluent enough in English to understand me or for me to understand them.

Avatar n tn I'm a 21 year old female athlete, who just noticed ankle swelling in my right ankle. It's on the inside of my ankle and I have no injury to that area whatsoever. I'm also not experiencing any other symptoms so it's kind of mind boggling to me as to why it would be swollen. Hopefully someone can help!! Thanks!
Avatar n tn I was in the hospital about two and a half years ago for alcoholism and secondary polycythemia vera and i have been free from both since then.While in the hospital i had alot of blood tests done,Head and neck MRI,EKG's,all were normal.I did have a very swollen right ankle and foot that was a decent shade of black,It has almost returned to normal but is still very lightly swollen and a little darker than the rest of my body.Sorry for the rambling i'll get to the point.
Avatar n tn I've been experiencing major swelling in my left ankle and foot. I've been to 4 doctors (Orthopaedic, Vascular, Arthritic and a Primary) and still have no idea what the problem is. I had microscopic surgery on my left knee in June 2006. The swelling in my ankle didn't begin until Spring 2007. Not sure if they're related. It started off as random minor swelling.
Avatar f tn It's been five weeks since I sprained my ankle, i've been in therapy for two weeks now and still in pain. It's still swelling and I hear it pop when the PT tried to stretch it. It's this common? How come it's still swelling and when I don't have the brace it's unstable? It tends to twist without the brace. How long does it take to heal and be normal again?
Avatar n tn Rest to the part (ankle and knee), ice therapy, compression of ankle and knee joint to decrease swelling and finally elevation of the involved leg to decrease the swelling. Keep me informed if you have any queries. Bye.
Avatar f tn ve have gone way past frustrated in trying to get answers. The swelling is in my left ankle and extends up to right below my knee. Can anyone give me any kind of idea of what's going on?
Avatar f tn OK so I woke up today and all of a sudden my left foot hurts in my arch and on the bone above it and my whole ankle and foot is swollen. I didn't hurt it seeing as I'm on bed rest ankle nd have been doing just that. Resting. Has anyone had this happen to them? I have a little swelling in my other leg and my hands but my left one is worse.
Avatar f tn I took the splint off and that reduced the pain a little. The swelling is huge and I occasionally lose some feeling in my toes. Should I be worried and is there any advice on what I can do to make it till Monday?
529224 tn?1400648219 My daughter, aged 30, otherwise normal & healthy, gets swelling at her feet and ankles after long/strenuous walk. The swelling goes off in 2-3 days or so. My question is : Is this symptom of any serious concern?
Avatar n tn I have some ankle swelling six months after bilateral hip replacement.
Avatar n tn Sometimes due to a heart disorder the blood backs up in the vessels and causes edema (fluids leaking into the vessels) and cause swelling of the peripheral extremities, but almost always that involves both legs. At the top of a diagnosis would be blood clots: a clot in vessel to the left ankle for the swelling of the left ankle. A blood clot to the eye retina can cause a blurring of vision. You should be seeing a doctor and the very least you should take an aspirin.
Avatar f tn DR - persistent inflation abdomen/stomach area and frequent swelling in left ankle. Comes with back and shoulder pain. The pain in abdomen is experienced when pressed otherwise I just feel the heaviness. Minor tightness in ankles and usually goes away with different Stretches But now a days it doesn't. Primarily - Few times a year I get swelling in left ankle which lasts about 2 weeks and through out the year randomly I get tightness in left ankle.
Avatar n tn I am a Male, 78 years of age and considered myself in pretty good health but my left Ankle shows mild swelling at the end of the day. My VA PA is all excited and has ordered an EKG with 30-day Blood Pressure and Pulse Monitoring and follow-up Echo-Cardiogram. My average BP was 115/70 w/pulse 76 over the 30 day period and my ankle swelling disappears overnight. The VA is well known for over-doing everything, which I can appreciate, but its very difficult to get information from them.

Avatar f tn So I'm 32weeks and I know some swelling in the extremities is normal with pregnancy. And I'm going on Monday for an appointment anyway so I'll ask my doc But I fell Thursday. Went yesterday for fetal monitoring and got admitted for a few hours due to Braxton hicks and the fall. But when I mentioned that my ankle was extremely sore and much more swollen then I know it should be they didn't seem all that concerned.
