Brief Answer:
Swelling of legs is not related to the fall.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and would try my best to help you.

The swelling of legs is not related to the fall.

Are you taking any medicines such as amlodipine for high BP? Any problem with kidney, liver and heart should also be excluded. Low albumin in the blood can also cause swelling of legs.

I sincerely hope my reply has helped you.

I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
     
Best wishes,
