Suggest Treatment For Constant Soreness In The Left Arm
Question: Hello-I have swelling around my left ankle for a few years now but now I noticed it is moving into the top of my left foot and I now have swelling under my right eye-it looks puffy but only under my right eye-not the left.
And for the past 2 months my left arm has had muscle soreness even though I am not doing anything
very different. I did start very simple yoga but the soreness is just in my left arm and not both and it does not go away. I have done yoga before and this has never happened.
Once the swollen eye came about I started thinking that maybe all these are relate?

I am on Wellbutrin 150mg per day. Have been on that for 4 years.
Only the left leg is affected. Only my right eye. Only my left arm.
I do not have any kidney function tests that I know of-would that be
in blood work?
The swelling is there all the time but can be worst one some days.

Brief Answer:
Probably a problem with the veins.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have reviewed this information. Appears you have a problem with your veins: venous insufficiency. I will suggest you limit salt intake, keep the legs raised whenever possible, avoid standing up for long hours unless very necessary. Also, if your weight is higher than recommended, I recommend you work on reducing it.
I hope this helps and guides. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
