I am a diabetic. i almost list.my leg 3 years ago. the past few day's i started feeling pain in my leg and now suddenly it's a bit swollen but not red yet. should i worry?

Yes: See a vascular surgeon as soon as possible. Your arterial blood supply to your leg may be impaired or there could be phlebitis present. Don't wait for redness to develop. Urgent diagnosis and treatment are needed especially seeing that you almost lost your leg 3 years ago.
