[|Human|] I have an area on my lower leg, ankle and above, that is red/purple in color. It is not really swollen, but it is a little warms to the touch. When you run your fingers over it, it feels bubbly like. It is slightly tender to touch, firm and almost like a band is around it. My feet have been swollen. On Lasix now and swelling has gone down a lot. Any thoughts?
[|AI|]  Hi, Dear thanks for the query to Chat Doctor virtual clinic. I studied your query in full details updated from you. I understood your health concerns. Based on your query data, In my opinion, Dear You seem to suffer from Varsity of the Short Saphenous Vein with multiple bumpy swellings. Your query data of tender lumps with firm to band like ring around, is very characteristic of the perforator bump popped of the Deep fascia of the lower leg and confirms clinically its diagnosis as -Multiple Varsity with Chronic Venus Insufficiency causing edema.Hence, Las ix which works in renal or cardiac edema is not the treatment for this Venus edema, which needs special treatment. Treatment-Get second opinion to assess the disease from Surgeon. Get Dual Image Color Doppler USG study of the Long and Saphenous Veins and confirm the extent of the Chronic insufficiency in your case. If the conservative treatment of 6 weeks fails, use this period to prepare the case for ELT for to correct the insufficient valves and for blocking the perforator feeder veins by polyvinyl ball embolization or by spring embolization, which would correct the Chronic Curiosities, in remaining future lifespan of yours. Conservative Treatment-is by-Rest/Elevation of the lower legs/-Reducing the Venus pressure and edema by Veno-stockings /-recouping the tissue health and body health by attending to DVT if need be/-Antibiotics/Painkillers-for if any Venus ulcers are there./-Good Diet and Vitamins prior to EVLT-surgery/ For this treatment GP and Surgeon and Vascular Surgeon team would be needed to treat your case. Hope this reply would help you to evaluate your case and treat it with your doctors in time to come. Hope this would resolve your query and worry and Anxiety accompanied by it.
