Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have read your query.
I would like to ask few questions so that I can help you better.
- Do you have pain radiating from foot to hip or pain is radiating from hip to foot?
- Do you have any chronic disease like hypertension,renal disease or liver disease?
Foot swelling with radiating pain from hip to foot can be due to spinal nerve compression. Lumbar disc bulge can lead to spinal nerve compression leading to radicular leg pain. I will advise you MRI spine and EMG NCV study to rule out spine nerve compressions if any.
Other reason for foot swelling can be systemic disease. I shall discuss about these after you provide the details required.
Awaiting your reply


further liver function test and PET scan for severity of liver mass
Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
Bilateral foot swelling with liver mass may be related. It would be better to follow up with liver function test and PET scan for severity of liver mass. The pain may be related to excessive swelling.
I will advise you rest and limb elevation with enzymes like Trypsin chymotrypsin to reduce swelling.
You can start them consulting your doctor.
As you had previous neck disease there is possibility of similar complains in lumbar region so I will advise you MRI SPINE.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care.
