Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Bloating And Swelling In The Legs And Feet
My brothers legs and feet started swelling about three days ago. Today they are so bad you can hardly tell he has feet and the swelling is moving up his body. His stomach is bloated and he is starting to have a hard time breathing. He cant lay down and breath at all. Heard headed and wont let me take him to ER.
Leg swelling can be related to many medical conditions such as cardiac issues. I suggest to do an electrocardiogram and a blood pressure measurement for further evaluation. I also recommend to see a cardiologist.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
