[|Human|] hi there. I  am wiritng to ask you a question for my brother in law. he had a seizure before new year hit. now his leg from foot to top and even in his groin area is swollen and has started to swell on the opposite side. what can he do. he say it hurts
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. The swelling needs to be examined by a doctor nearby you. One-sided swelling could be cellulitis or lymphangitis and can be determined only by examination. Relevant history regarding injury to site and any insect bites needs to be assessed. I suggest you get in touch with a GP nearby you and get the swelling examined and discuss in detail associated symptoms as soon as possible as the swelling seems to be spreading. For now, over the counter painkillers can be taken for pain relief. Do not try any other medications without his treating doctors consultation as he is on treatment for seizures also. Thanks.
