A member asked:

Last 3 days urine output is less than liquid intake.but body weight remains same.taking diuretic 15 mg.feet swelling, is it ascietes or dehydration?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

None: If you had less urine out put than fluid intake it's not dehydration, it's fluid overload and edema. Ascites is accumulation of fluid in the abdomen which could happen with kidney, liver or heart problems.
