[|Human|] I have fell over four years ago and have put L2 almost inside L1, however, now I am having swelling in my lower left leg. I stand and walk a lot. My BNP has been within normal range. When I wear ted hose that just makes the swelling worse & the hose cuts into my skin. Any ideas??
[|AI|]  Hi, Swelling in legs may be attributed to improper Chat Doctor.  In mean time keep your leg supported or straight while sleeping, or keeping it slightly elevated position will also help in relieving swelling. Decrease sodium intake in diet (salt) instead increase potassium in diet (banana is rich source of potassium) do light non impact exercises of legs, like ankle movements, heel slides and do regular walking (with proper rest time in between). Hope you will find the answer useful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
