After I returned from a trip I have had swollen legs-- mostly the left leg and ankle. My left calf is tender to touch but is not otherwise sore. The swelling is worse at the end of the day. I take Geritol, a thyroid medication, and low dose aspirin. My cholesterol is high.
Hi, History is suggestive of deep vein thrombosis. Deep vein thrombosis is due to a blood clot in a vein of the leg. Other possibility could be cellulitis. I advise you to visit the emergency room of your nearby hospital for proper clinical assessment and certain lab tests such as an ultrasound or genogram to confirm the diagnosis. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
