Question

Red spots with a white centre on my hands, elbows, feet and knees, they are very itchy, what could this be?

Answer 1

Possible : Bullous tina pedis which is a form of athletes foot that blisters.

Answer 2

Rash : This rash can be a few things from fungus to allergic reaction. See a dermatologist or podiatrist soon.

Answer 3

Avoid salt: Swollen feet and ankles are common in pregnancy. As the uterus gets bigger it puts pressure on the blood vessels in the pelvis returning the blood from the legs back to the heart. This can make blood flow slower and increase swelling. Avoiding salt, drinking plenty of water, and elevating your feet can help reduce swelling. Be aware it may not go away until a few weeks after the baby is born.

Answer 4

Compression hose: Use of compression panty hose is quite important in pregnancy.

Answer 5

Compression stocking: Low salt diet , leg elevation while resting, walking excercise , compression stockings knee high 15-20 or 20-30 mmhg .. If sudden onset swelling and/ or on one side then must check duplex for dvt.

Answer 6

Elevation: Elevate your legs as often as possible.

Answer 7

RICE: Rest, ice, compression and elevation.

Answer 8

Swelling: Also try leg elevation and compression stockings to help reduce swelling. Increased physical activity can also help to move some of the fluid.

Answer 9

Vascular consult: Once you give birth, and have the time, see a vascular specialist. You may have venous insufficiency. It is 4 times more common in women, because pregnancy can exacerbate and accelerate the disease.

Answer 10

Probable referral: Pain to the leg/calf/foot can be a "radicular" pain; pain caused by a nerve impingement at the low back. This can be from a herniated disc and could warrant a referral to a back specialist. Fortunately, over 95% of herniated disc do not need surgery and can resolve with conservative treatment such as rest, stretching, strengthening, anti-inflammatory medications, and time.

Answer 11

Consult: Consult service can be a very wise idea. It does not mean you will have surgery. It can help you and your physician to have the extra tool to decide what is the best care and option in your situation. The pain might be a combination of different things which medical consultation can be helpful.

Answer 12

Exam first: There has been a lot of great diagnostic skill derived from years of training & practice that your physician can bring to the process of examining a patient.After an exam, the physician can decide if additional studies are necessary prior to treatment.

Answer 13

Needs to be examined: An examination will go along way in determining what might be the problem as well as what teats need to be performed and what can be done.

Answer 14

Maybe, but...: You should have your son medically evaluated to help determine the cause of his pain. He may need an MRI, but usually Doctors start out with a physical exam, and then x-rays. Depending on the findings, your Doctor may recommend an MRI or other additional imaging procedure.

Answer 15

Yes and No: Early in the recovery it is not unusual to have swelling from the knee down into the ankle and foot. With healing proper circulation is reestablished and usually the swelling returns to a more normal state. Ice, elevation, and compression and education may help but if the swelling persist too long more aggressive treatment may be needed. See, your surgeon.

Answer 16

Depends: If non-painful swelling it may be from the surgery or venous flow issue. If painful then radiographs would be needed and check for dvt.

Answer 17

Show the dr: Who performed the knee surgery. He is an orthopedist and should be able to help.

Answer 18

Compression: Use a compression stocking or compression socks to help with the edema. Very slow to decrease and may never be normal size again.

Answer 19

Elevate on 3 pillows: Swelling is normal after knee replacement for about 6weeks post op. If swelling goes down with elevation its probably normal. If it does not, it may indicate a DVT or blood clot in your leg. See you surgeon asap if that is the case.

Answer 20

Atarax (hydroxyzine): Atarax (hydroxyzine) does not cause itching rather, stopping the drug causes the suppressed itch to come out once again.

Answer 21

Atarax (hydroxyzine) lessens itch: More likely the itching was there while taking the atarax, (hydroxyzine) but as an antihistamine it was covering up the itch. When it was stopped the itching became evident.
