Suggest Remedy For Swollen Painful Feet
four days ago my husband had a fever that lasted a couple of days. That has gone away. His feet also started swelling, blistered and now they are hurting. The blistered went away after soaking feet in ebson salts, but they are swollen (cannot see ankle) and they hurt. Your thoughts

Hi,
Thanks for your query.
This painful swelling over feet can be due to infection, inflammation, dvt. etc.
I advice you to give you rest to the part affected, take anti-inflammatory drug like motrin 1tablet with food as and when required (upto 4 tablets daily) to reduce pain and inflammation and consult your doctor for thorough examination and rule out any infective cause.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
