General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear. Your doctor is suspecting filariasis which spreads through mosquito bite. Filariasis causes fever and lymphatic block and swelling in the leg. Hence the doctor has also thought of doing a color doppler to rule out lymphatic blockage.

Kindly ask your friend to follow the instructions of his doctor and get all the tests done as per his advice.

Hope i have answered your question. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions. I ll be glad to help you.
All the best
With warm regards
