You have a problem: You likely have venous insufficiency or lymphedema (swelling in the legs). This needs to be controlled with some form of compression garment/stocking/ you may or may not have an associated infection. I suggest you visit a doctor for evaluation and treatment.

See Phlebologist: Leg weep is due to fluid leaking into the subcutaneous tissue. Causes include prolonged sitting/standing, obesity, venous insufficiency, heart problems, kidney problems. Seek help by going to www.Phlebology.Org and put in your zip code to find a phlebologist in your area who can help to find relief.
