What Causes Swelling In The Leg While On Lasix?

Very small - hard to see red spot lower leg weeping almost continually. Taking Lasix 20 mg twice daily as needed (lately regularly). I have issues with swelling on days I m on my feet a lot. Taking Losartan 50 mg daily for blood pressure. Need to up the Lasix dose? What else to do to stop the weeping?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

You should see your caring doctor as soon as possible. We should determine what the cause of this weeping spot is. To me might be infected trauma wound however, you can send a picture to me for further evaluation.

Meanwhile, keep your legs elevated, especially when sitting or laying down until you see your doctor.

Wish fast recovery.
