Can Swelling Of The Legs, Ankles And Feet Be Caused From Norco?

Can swelling of the legs, ankles and feet be cause from the medication Norco? My sister in law had back surgery and about 5 days out her legs, feet and ankle swelled up like balloons. She is on muscle relaxers, gavipenten(sp?) and Norco. Could any of these meds possibly be the reason she is so swollen. It s been 2 months since the surgery..

Hi,

It is not related to norco. Consult a physician and get an ultrasound scan to rule out conditions like cellulitis and DVT.
