What Causes Pain And Swelling Of Ankle And Foot And History Of Having MS?

My left foot and ankle becomes somewhat swollen at times, but today the top of my foot hurts and it is really swollen. Yesterday I was out walking and my left groin area felt pulled. Would this cause my foot discomfort today? I am a 59 year old woman. I have been diagnosed with MS and I have two coronary stints in my right artery. But I feel okay and don t want more medical bills. I am raising two grandchildren and have to work.
