Swollen Leg

0%

Swollen leg, ankle or other swelling
This consultation will help assess your swollen leg, ankle, or other swelling. Many cases resolve with time, rest, or over-the-counter treatments.

If your symptoms worsen or persist, please continue with this eConsult to receive further advice.

eConsults are not a direct booking system for face-to-face (F2F) appointments. We will assess your symptoms and provide the most suitable course of action, which may include advice, treatment, or a referral if needed.

Misuse of the eConsult system may delay care for you and other patients. Please ensure that you answer all questions honestly and accurately. Manipulating responses to trigger red flags or selecting an unrelated condition may result in delays in your care.

If your symptoms are complex, involve multiple conditions, or require ongoing management, you may be advised to book a face to face appointment instead.

Urgent cases – If you feel your condition is life-threatening, please call 999 or visit A&E.

Thank you for helping us provide safe, effective care.
