Re: Painless leg edema in both legs that comes and goes

I just had one of the long veins in my leg removed last week actually. I have been having edema and pain in both legs for about a year. I feel it is from the adhesions. They only took the one from one leg to see if it improves. My feet have cracks on top from the swelling and I have a permanent rash on the lower part of legs. I am on water pills. Kelly

Thanks for the comments but can't work. I cross country cycle each summer. Just hope I don't make things worse.

        Yes, you must be speaking of me!  I've had every type of test to figure out what the swelling is all about and I am in great shape (with the exception of fibromyalgia) and voila, nothing shows up!  Just something I live with.  The only way to make them go down is rest.  So treat yourself to a nice recliner and learn to relax.

          Are there non surgical forms of treatment for abdominal adhesions?  Has anyone had complications where the lower legs swell but without pain?  Mine do but they wax and wane.  Both legs are affected though the left leg is worse.  Sometimes there is almost no swelling.  This all started about a year after laparoscopic surgery to repair a hernia.
