What Causes Swollen Ankles While On Losartan And Clopidogrel?

I am on Losartan, clopidogrel, atorvastatin and metroprolol after my heart attack in 2012...I now have swollen ankles..a swollen lump to the left of the ankle and soft swelling behind the ankle. Is this caused by the medicine and is there any treatment short of discontinuing the medicine?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, no such swelling is not due to medicine but it could be due to disease condition it self and this need to be further investigated some time this could be due to congestive cardiac failure, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day
