For a week, my left calf and foot has been swollen. When My right foot was like that, my doctor told me that if both were swollen, then he would be concerned. I can t seem to get rid of the swelling. I am on antiinflammatory meds. I can t think of what the real problem. I know I fell Oct 12, and I did go to the ER to treat my knee and the rest of the leg was swollen but after a week, it got better, other than my knee, the knee has a hematoma (sp). Don t know if that has anything to do with it. When I use heat, I ice afterwards. It is difficult if I have to take my husband places (he can not drive) and now we are dealing with snow. With my knee injury, my Dr office was too busy and they sent me across the hall, when the swelling and redness wouldn t go away, I called to see him again, and I had to wait 3 weeks for an appt. I am seriously thinking of going to an Urgent Care as I don t think it really is an ER problem. But I don t know.
