What Causes Swelling And Pain In Breasts And Feet?
My breasts are swollen and painful. Not normal for a 67 year old. Woman. My left foot is also swollen and aches. A finger press will stay there like dough. My left knee to my foot has been painful after 2 knee replacements that did not go well. My foot has had some mild swelling before but not like this. Is this not a good drug for me?

Thanks for your question, from your description, i would say you have an oedema which is a condition where there is water retention in the body and this infiltrates tissues causing them to swell and retain a depression when gentle pressure is applied on any part of the body. There are many causes of oedema and which range from heart failure, liver failure and many others. i would advise you consult a physician for proper examination and necessary tests. Good luck
