What Causes Swelling And Pain In The Lower Left Leg?
I am a 42 yr old woman, no health issues at all. For the past 2 months my left lower leg and foot have been swelling extremely bad. My right doesn t swell at all. And in both lower legs and feet I been extreme cramping to where the pain is enough that it makes me sweat and sick, literally in tears. What can be causing this ?

Hello,
Swelling in one of the legs associated with pain and cramping can be due to deep vein thrombosis. I suggest you consult your surgeon for clinical assessment, investigations and thus management.
