How Can Swelling In The Lower Leg Be Reduced?
I have been taking diversions5/325 2 tablets every 4-6hrs. I had rotator/labrum surgery with anchors put in to reattach the labrum last Wednesday, now my feet and lower legs are swollen is this a drug reaction to the overdone and how can I reduce their swelling?

Hi,
Swelling of lower limb may not be due to the medicines but it seems to be due to anaemia, water retention (Renal disease).
It can be due to some cardiopulmonary events. These are the common reasons and that need to be differentiated and ruled out else it may not be due to drugs unless it is proved clinically.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
