A member asked:

I have a swollen right foot and ankle no injury its been this way about a week. i was an iv drug user for awhile what could be the cause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You would need to : Be evaluated, so many things can cause swelling. The fact it is unilateral adds to the differential diagnosis a blood clot. Usually, in a blood clot the calf would be swollen or painful. (Though, doesn't always have to be)
