Could Puffiness In Foot Be Related To Plaque Build Up In Arteries?
HI, I have genetic high cholesterol and a heart scan about 10 years ago saw some plaque build up in my coronary arteries with a calcium score in the 40 s. My question is that I ve been seeing some swelling in my left leg, puffiness around the foot, ankle and calf. No pain, only swelling. Could these 2 events be related?
