Suggest Treatment For Swollen Ankle, Painful Legs And Arms
Hi, I m 67 yrs old female, I m having issues with my legs from the knees down with tingling sensations and occasionally my ankles swell (I don t use salt) this started last November, now I am waking up with both arms going to sleep and hurting. This just started about 2 months ago, I thought I just slept funny but now I wake up because my arms just ache and cause me pain. I don t sleep on my arms. I had my nerves tested in my legs they are fine, I can feel my legs and walking isn t an issue.
