You might have to put that lotion up the leg some. My swelling is confined more to the instep of the foot...not so much around the ankle. My ankle just gets bigger and HARD... not puffy. My instep however does puff up some.
You may need to be more patient for it to work as well...Mine starts to go back down within hours. I had surgery on that foot
over 50 yrs ago, on the instep and it has just started with this
swelling issue. So far 2 doctors are clueless... One said the circulation was upset, and with aging now that is why I get this
swelling. Who knows? I think the stairs I have all over here are
a trigger. When we live upNorth, I don't have these spells at all (no stairs there).
Just here.
