What Is The Treatment For Swelling In Knee With Blisters?
I'm inquiring for my boyfriend! He does have a Dr. appt this Thursday, but I'm just wondering possible condition from these symptoms:
Swelling begins just below my knees and my ankles and feet are quite inflamed. Some tiny blisters, mostly on my left foot, have opened and liquid is leaking out. Not a lot, but like a drop here and there. Hard to get shoes on. Feet look disfigured because the are so swollen. Not a diabetic, but has been taking pain med which I believe is a steroid. Feet have been swollen for over a week! Thought it would go away!
Any info would be appreciated.
Thank you very much.
