What Causes Swelling Of Feet,ankles And Lower Legs?
Hello - When I expose my skin to the sun for extended periods of time, my feet, ankles, and lower legs swell so much that veins bust. I have just returned from a trip to St. Martin (13 days) and cannot where shoes or even get my jeans over my feet. I have gained 8 lbs. during this time period. This has been happening for about 5 years. My doctors are stumped. Any suggestions?

Hello,
Firstly, you should do a check up of blood tests. Than a consultation with a cardiologist to see the heart function. After the results your doctor will advise you further.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
