Zack Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 So my foot is really swollen and i'm not sure how it happened. Anyways I went to the doctor to test for a blod clot and didn't have one. It's so bad you can push on the area and a big dent is left in the skin sort of like a gel pack.....Anyone have any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveliberate Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 (edited) Been to the tropics or anywhere else where you might have picked up some sort of insect infestation? Cuz if ya have, maybe the swelling is the bug larvae pooping under yr skin + egg sacks & lots of pus... Other than that, sorry no, I dont have any ideas!

joelbct Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Um, I think I might have had a mild case of gout at one point in my pre-vegan days. I was working in a music studio, living hard and eating a steady diet of pizza and baked ziti with extra mozarella (shivers....) One of my legs got quite swollen at one point for a few days. I drank a lot of water and it seemed to go away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Not sure if this will be helpful at all... but my feet/ankles tend to swell on long car trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathryn Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Did the doctor not test for other things, or give a diagnosis as to what it could be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
