Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The red pin like spots on the feet with a swelling can be due to a renal function com promise, a bleeding disorder or a cardiac cause like cardiac fluid overload. Detailed investigations are needed to find out the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
