Is My Leg Swelling Due To Side Effect Of Medicine ?

from past 5 days if i stand for 15 min after that if want to sit on the floor i am getting the legs pain under knee only. i am getting swelling of the legs I am 25yrs old. before i was ok to stand much time but not now. if i stand for some time nothing will come if i suddenly sit then the swelling comes and i am able to observe that time, mostly in night time. recently i got some fungal infection to my right tyhe and doctor has given powerful tablets and cream. Is there a relation b/w the medicine and the swelling ?

You may be having varicose veins, wherein there is no proper venous drainage and hence the blood gets stagnated in your leg and thereby pain.

Do you smoke, because there is something called as Smoker's disease. That also will have pain in the legs.
