Welcome at HCM
I am Dr Saad Sultan and will be answering your query. I have read and understood your health concern.
Based upon the description provided , in my opinion you should be examined by physician.
Do you have diabetes or hypertension? Any thyroid problem?
If I am your attending physician , after clinical examination, I will get your full blood count with ESR, liver and kidney function tests along with chest x ray and ECG. Thyroid function testing and blood sugar levels seem quite relevant in your setting.
As far as treatment is concerned, diuretic can be used to relieve swelling but after assessing the blood pressure and electrolytes of the body. You can use acetaminophen to relieve pain.
In light of investigations one is able to proceed,
Hope it helps and feel free to ask any time.
