Hello..one of my friend has problem in right leg pain start at medial femoral side of thigh and swelling in leg with red rashes and itching....body temperature was also increased...like fever....my doc suggested me to have banocide forte for 21 days and reviw within 3 days .....then will decide to do color Doppler..
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.
