A member asked:
What is bone marrow edema around the superior calcaneous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unclear question: Bone marrow edema is not a clinical entity. If you have swelling in the foot or ankle, that could be due to many reasons, e.g., local injury, or abnormal veins; if both sides are affected, then it may be due heart failure, low blood protein, and side effect of some medications.
