Suggest Treatment For Swollen Feet And Ankles After Insect Bite

Patience, avoid standing for long, raise legs , no worries, see Dr if persisting
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the query,
I think it is too early to be bothered. You might just need to exercise some patience.
Swelling with kidney problems usually not only involves joint of the lower limbs, but also the face. In case the swelling persists or aggravates within a couple of days, you might need to see your doctor to check your kidney function.
It is also true that SLE can lead to chronic kidney disease in the long run. You might need to check your kidney function from time to time. However, you need not be bothered that much in this case.
Be patient, watchful, if persistence or aggravation , see your Doctor, but for now, no real worries. Just try to keep your legs raised and avoid standing for long.
Kind regards as I wish you the best of health. Please, do feel free asking further questions in case of need.
Kind Regards
Dr Bain
