Suggest Treatment For Swelling In The Ankle And Nose Bleeding
My dad has swelling in his legs and he has been prescribed TELMA for his BP. His renal tests have proved that there are no problems with his kidneys. I also know that he occasionally gets bleeding in his nose as a side effect to this drug. What needs to be done to get swollen ankle and nose bleeding under control.

Hi,
I understand your concern.
From what you are describing, the swollen ankles and nose bleeding are signs of spikes in blood pressure (bp). Controlling bp is the best thing you should do to control these symptoms too.
Apart telma, he should also cut salty/oily/fried/high calories foods intake.
It will take a few more days to get a full control of his blood pressure.
All the best.
