Hello,
The symptoms you are experiencing could be caused by several conditions like diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, thyroid issues. Cardiovascular disease also needs to be ruled out with a history of edema. So please be advised to follow up with your primary provider for a detailed evaluation.
