Swollen ankles and lower legs

2 replies

Just been away for a few days. Walked lots each day. Didn't drink alcohol and haven't for a few months.

Every day my ankles and lower legs have been swollen from about lunchtime onwards. Lower legs are also very itchy when they swell.

Arrived home last night and thought by this morning they would be back to normal but they are not. I had shoes and socks on for about an hour and when I took them off there are marks on my feet where the socks have creased. Now had my shoes off for a good hour and I can still see these marks.

What causes the swelling and is there anything that I could do to stop the swelling?

Thanks

Lying down with your legs raised will help reduce the swelling.
You need to see your GP

I always get this after travelling.

Did you have a long car journey or fly?
