Pitting edema: Please see a doctor over the next 24 hours( doctor ER/urgent care). Pitting edema is never normal in a 23 year old or anyone . you need blood work to check you kidney function, blood work to check for autoimmune disease and need to check for clots in legs. Also need to check urine for protein. . See a doctor today.
