[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Ask A doctor Service.  I reviewed your query and here is my answer. Will you elaborate the swelling in the legs? Does it pain when touched? Is it red? Do you run fever? As you said you went to gynecologist, so there are two differentials for this swelling. It could be deep venous thrombosis if there is also associated hair loss and shiny leg at site of swelling which can be diagnosed by Doppler ultrasound of leg and need urgent treatment.  But if you are not bedridden and don't have underlying blood disorder or not using any OCS, then it is least likely. The 2nd cause is cellulitis which is more favoring if it is warm, red and painful. And will need simple painkillers, anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  Till that simple elevating of legs will help in subsiding of swelling and need to see a doctor. Hope I answered your question.  Feel free to ask more if you need further assistance.  Thanks.
