my aunt is on valaprin 200, she has developed sever swelling in both her legs, she has been keeping her legs elevated , but its not showing any improvement, besides she is also having psoriasis on the legs, the redness of which has reduced but swelling and pain persists. Please advice
Hello, As she has swelling of the lower limbs and even though keeping elevated it's not helping I will advise doing passive lower limb range of motion exercises, use lower limb stocking, monitor the water intake and output, and active ankle toe movements as well.  Valarie 200 is a medicine for other issues and not for reducing the swelling. I think she should take a diuretic for reducing the swelling.  Also looks like she has a reduced venous return and needs to have a cardiac assessment on a safer side. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
