Flew overseas from south africa. swollen ankles and red spots on bottom of legs. what can it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swollen ankles: can simply be from the flight and may resolve quickly on its own. The red spots need to be evaluated by your doctor, especially after being in another country. Please tell him/her about the ankles as well. Peace and good health.
