Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Swelling In Foot, Knee, Leg And Elbow With Fever?
My daughter is in a detention facility and woke up with a very swollen foot, with swelling moving up to knee of that leg; the elbow swelled; temp went up to 103; head began hurting significantly. She was given Motrin and started on Bactrim. Was given crutches, but cannot lift swollen foot. Could not find any bite marks and did not have a fall or other trauma. Will hopefully be seen tomorrow at medical, but no guarantees. What do you think may be causing this? She is 33.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the sudden onset of generalized swelling of upper limb and lower limb then it need to be due to renal disease or it must be due to allergic condition and there may not be any other etiology such case demands the investigations hope this information helps.
