Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain And Swelling In The Foot

I have ankle and foot swelling. Took lasic but lowered my B/P too much. Dr suggested stopping lasic and also cut Atenolol to 1/2. In addition my feet feel hot, sometimes I feel like I am walking on a heated floor. I do not have Diabetes and blood sugar test is normal. My doctor does not seem to be concerned about the hot feet but I know this cannot e normal. It is the same waking up in the morning and in the evening.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, one can not take the diuretic for swelling of leg which is not confirmed for the cause and until and unless it is the edema due to renal disease diuretic can not be taken, most of the time such swelling could be due to retuned difficulty of blood and it may be nonspecific hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
