A member asked:
Could edema cause swollen wrists as well as ankles and the top of both feet? also, would it cause a burning feeling in the feet and around the wrists?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Edema: Edema is the medical word for swelling. It is a description, a symptom and not a disease. You will need to see a doctor in person, to investigate the cause.
