Is Swelling In My Ankles Due To Kidney Problems Or Urinary Incontinence?
Hello, Many causes for ankle swelling like 1. renal failure 2. heart failure 3. liver cell failure 4. hypoproteinemia 5. Physiological/dependent edema 6. cellulitis/deep vein thrombosis etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. So get it done renal function tests, colour Doppler of lower limbs, liver and cardiac examination needed. Please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
