Hi,
All parameters that you have mentioned have a range and within the range, all are normal (range varies from lab to lab as to which system is being used).
Do not compare your legs with others as the differences could be there. If you feel that there is true swelling - consult your physician for examination and investigations.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
