[|Human|] I am 50 years old I have Motor neuron disease, osteoarthritis,asthma,eczema, hayfever, and have had problems with my gallbladder and stones in the laast few months, I am due to have the gall bladder removed soon,,,but my problem at the moment is that I have swollen ankles that are very uncomfortable, I am on water retention tablets but they dont seem to be helping remove the swelling,,help please
[|AI|]  Howell come to ChatDoctorI really appreciate your concern, with the chronic illness hypovitaminosis and anemia likely to develops and these could be the reason of ankle swelling if the diuretic fails to work then this may not be renal pathology related swelling, circulatory disturbances could be the another cause, try to keep the leg in elevated position, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
