Suggest Treatment For Pitting Edema In The Legs
I have been suffering with pitting edema in my legs and sometimes in my whole body it s been going on for about five years and no dr can figure out what s wrong, it s not my heart or my kidneys. I m basically healthy except for the edema and sudden weight gain when it all started. Antibiotics make it go away but when I m off the antibiotic for a little while it all comes back.
