[|Human|] My ankles are immensely swollen with liquid and painful. There is no circulation. I now see a bluish tint at the bottom of my ankles that might be blood on the inside. They are never not swollen. It doesn t help to prop them up. It gets worse and worse every year, and now everyday. It is painful. My skin is stretched to the max with fluid. It stops at the ends of my ankles; my feet are not swollen. What is this? I m worried I could get a blood clot. What kind of doctor do I go see about this?
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have painful swelling with liquid in ankles. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like taking certain antidepressants, taking certain blood pressure medications, blood clot of the leg, venous insufficiency, organ failure, particularly in the heart, liver, or kidney. I would suggest you to lower your salt consumption, eat healthy (fresh fruits and green vegetables) and keep your legs elevated while lying down. Consult general practitioner for proper examination. Doctor may order certain test like complete blood profile, take history and check vitals along with thumb press test. Doctor may prescribe beta blockers along with diuretics or may refer you to cardiologist for heart problem or nephrologist for kidney problem. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
