Can Lisinopril Cause Extreme Swelling And Pain In Feet And Legs?
I had two heart valves repaired 8 weeks ago. My meds were adjusted 1 week ago and Lisinopril is one of the new ones. Could it be causing extreme swelling of my feet and legs, which just started 5 days ago? And my legs are very painful from feet to mid thigh.
