Swollen Foot With Itchiness & Red Spots. Blood Tests Normal. Any Diagnosis?

both of my feet have been swollen for about 2 weeks now, but have been getting worse over time. now they have some red spots on the top that itch like crazy. i went to the emergency room today and i had blod work done and everything came back fine. the doctors weren t able to give me a diagnosis, so if someone can that would be great.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Swelling of the feet could be due to dehydration,. excessive salt intake, improper diet lacking protein, laxative and pain killers abuse. You need to rule out all these factors and then get yourself examined to find out any systemic diseases.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
