What Could Cause Swelling In Legs And Feet With No Help From Lasix?
My legs and feet have swollen up, its been almost two weeks. I cannot put shoes or slippers on and have to be very selective with socks. Its very painful, I take Lasix and already drink a lot of water so I have tried to drink even more, but now that I have really paid attention. I am not going to the bathroom as much as I should be. Any suggestions?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the give history here I could say that this may not be due to the water retention so the Lasix is not working this could be something else and the possibility of soft tissue inflammation is likely in my opinion the underlying cause need to be found out, mean while this can be managed with the Tab Ibuprofen 400mg three times in day, take care and have a nice day.
