Suggest Treatment For Stomach Bloating And Swollen Foot

I have a friend who has been having chronic stomach problems for the past week or so Also her leg and foot have swollen twice in that week. What can be the problem? I have already asked about her diet and she s barely eating now because she has no appetite. Cancer is a heavy thought of mine, but, I don t want to scare her with misinformation.

swelling of foot and leg caused by kidney , liver or heart problem . Stomach bloating(? Ascitis) plus leg swelling could be a liver problem. Better to consult local doctor and get examined for proper diagnosis and further management.
