Swelling, Pain And Bruising In Right Foot, Worse After Walking. What Could Be This?

I'm a 30 year old, 240 lb female that has some swelling, pain and now bruising in the right foot. I do not recall injuring my foot. The swelling and pain have been going on for a few months and the pain does get worse if i've either been walking/up on my feet for long periods of time or sometimes sitting too long in one position. The bruising has just started in the last day or so. What could be causing this?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
hallo dear friend
i hv studied your case
IS THERE any swelling ,redness near your ankle or foot
pain aggrivates on walking or only on movement
you should take X RAY foot

take rest , take some analgesic , hot or cold fomentation

these symptoms can be due to raised uric acid
so check your uric acid level in blood
you should also focus on weight reduction

for further query contact drvaibhavg@yahoo.com
