[|AI|]  Hello, You may be suffering from dependent edema with superficial thrombophlebitis or DVT. You have to keep your legs on elevated position, use stockings to prevent edema. Do regular exercise or physiotherapy, if symptoms not improved please get it done color Doppler of lower limbs to know venous incompetence and consult with your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
