A member asked:
My grandma of 94 years old all the sudden her ankles and feet are swelled up and she can't walk or stand. her feet won't step where she want them to ?

Take her to PCP ASAP: She needs to be checked as soon as possible because this maybe a symptom of congestive heart failure especially if this is a sudden onset. Because of her age, she can also have other conditions that can bring this about.
