A member asked:
I am on testosterone shots. in the last week my right calf and foot have become swollen. is this a normal side effect ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: This is not normal. Testosterone can put you at higher risk for developing blood clots. A blood clot in the deep veins in your leg can cause swelling. These can be potentially dangerous. You need to see a doctor.
