What Causes Swelling In The Lower Legs?
I have swollen feet and lower legs. Mostly in the left leg. Also had an infection in the left leg about 3 or 4 weeks ago. Did one round of antibiotics. The infection is over. At the same time had an all over body rash with bad itch. Rash is gone but still itching although nothing like it was. What really worries me is the swollen leg/foot. It also has gone down but not gone. I ve been told I have blocked arteries in the left leg.

Hello,
According to the history, you provide if you have blocked vessels even arteries or vein you should see an angiologist specialist and probably he or she will start anticoagulant and the swelling will get better. Please discuss with your doctor about this.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
