[|AI|]  Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case, I would come up with three possibilities, these include: First possibility is due to vascular problem like varicose veins or venous insufficiency or DVT and this can be excluded by doing duplex US for your lower limb and can be treated by raising your legs up, wearing elastic stocks and receiving catatonics. Second possibility is due to elevated serum uric acid level and this can be excluded by doing blood level of serum uric acid and treated with rate lowering Chat Doctor. Third possibility is due to systemic disease and this could be excluded by doing renal and liver function test and assessing cardiac function by doing ECHO cardiograph.
