Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The high blood pressure that you have is not related to the prolapsed uterus. The swelling in the legs is associated with the hypertension. She needs to get her renal profile evaluated to find out the cause of swelling.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
