[|Human|] I have severe pain in both my feet and ankles. I had previous surgery on both feet. first surgery 09/2013 and second surgery 03/2014. Both my feet have continued to get worse. They are both swollen and completely dark red on bottom of feet. Sometime the color even turns purple. Swelling in both ankles joints. Painful to even walk. Severe paid in heels all the way to tips of toes. Even some swelling and discoloration around the ankle and top of foot.
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have swelling in feet & ankles. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like Lymphedema, taking certain antidepressants, such as tricyclics, taking certain blood pressure medications, organ failure like heart, liver, or kidney, pericarditis or cirrhosis. There can also be post-operative complication. I would suggest you to consult general practitioner for proper checkup. Doctor may order ECG, liver and kidney function test. Doctor may refer you to cardiologist for heart problem, nephrologist for kidney failure or to gastroenterologist for liver. For now lower the salt consumption and keep your legs elevated while lying down. Also consult surgeon to rule out any post-operative complication. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
