A member asked:
Can high blood preasure an being over weight be the cause of left foot swelling up?

Usually: When only one foot is swollen, it's an indication of something wrong with the foot, ankle or lower leg that's swollen. Blood pressure can lead to swelling if untreated, but usually in both feet, not one. Being overweight can make treating whatever is wrong more difficult, but it's not the cause of swelling. I suggest you either consult with your pmd or see a dpm about the swelling. Good luck!

Yes: Both can be contributing to the swelling. Don't overlook vascular issues in the legs. Get with your PC who may change your meds and order some tests to check lower extremity circulation.
