Right swollen foot and ankle with NO pain?

Waking up normal then throughout the day having swelling and pain in right foot and ankle only after blood clot ruled out and water pills not working what else could it be?

  • Answer:

    Answer: It can be because of heat. In danish its called "water in the legs" it is exactly what is sounds like and its pretty normal, you see when its very hot and you keep your legs downward, then alot of the water in your body can get into your legs which will make your leg/legs swollen. Some times so much water can get down in your legs that your skin gets very tight and hurts. But how much water and in one or both legs are different from person to person. The best approach is to sleep with your legs upwards maby on alot of pillows, you can also get some diuretic pills against it, first they will make you need to pee all the time but it will help on the legs too. If in doubt ask your doctor. I hope this helped you.
