My husband s feet, ankles, and bottom part of his legs have been extremely swollen for over two weeks now. This happened when he flew to a business meeting. Swelling has never gone down. Skin on legs are tight and shiny. Over the past week they are becoming red. (started lower leg around ankles but it is now up to his knees. Tonight, he had to take his pants off as they seemed to be getting wet. He thinks fluid is seeping through the skin. He thinks it is his gout acting up but I don t think it is. I might add, he drinks alcohol accsessively. Please advise. He refuses to see a doctor.
