What Causes Leg Discomfort And Swelling In Ankles During Summer?
I have had minor swelling in both ankles for several years in the summer. I have just stared with leg discomfort, and a lot of swelling in both ankles and lower legs, one more than other. Am taking HCTZ 12.5 MG everyday for a year now and still have this swelling. Any idea what this could be?

Hi
Leg swelling will need a proper evaluation. It can from kidney, liver, thyroid, venous disease, lymph disorder. So it will need a detailed history and thorough physical examination. You should visit your physician for the same.
