What Causes Swelling In The Feet And Toes?
My toes and the tops of my feet are a bit swollen. Yesterday I had a headache that felt very much like a migraine; it is better today. I am 70 years old and am on losartin 50 mg HCTZ 2.5 1/2 tablet and simvistatin 10 mg. I live in Ct but am in Florida for a month where it is humid and I eat out more frequently than at home.

Hi,
Your history indicates you are suffering from hypertension.
The swelling in the feet and toes is due to disorder in kidneys which have compromised to some extent.
It is better at this point in time to report to the emergency room for proper evaluation.
You may be required for kidney function tests there to check kidney functions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
