Are her legs swollen?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I will like to know if her legs swollen? I will also like to know if you could upload an image of her lower limbs for review? I will also like to review her medications and know any disease conditions that she's being managed for.

To upload an image, simply click on the link to upload a file and follow the instructions. If this proves difficult, please send the image by mail to YYYY@YYYY and request that the image should be uploaded to your query.

I do promise to get back to you with more insights and helpful recommendations as soon as the requested information gets here.
