What Causes Red Body Rashes And Swelling In The Ankles?
My partner has a raised red rash over most of his body, very swollen ankles and sometimes his face and lips are badly swollen. This has been going on since November 2016 and he s been to his GP and a specialist. Do you have any thoughts about it? Everyone is mystified so far.

Hello,
Your husband may have kidney problems, hematologic disorders or chronic diseases such as hepatitis, etc. A complete blood count, biochemical tests and a full urine analysis along with serological evaluation may be necessary. I suggest you to visit an internal medicine specialist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
