my ankels and feet swell really bad and they hurt all the time,if they are massaged the swelling goes down right away, and as soon as the massaging stops and i stand up they swell right away. the bones on my ankels are very sore to the touch, i went to the dr and he said i have imflamatory disease and put me on 800mgs of ibuprophen and it worked for like a day and a half and then stopped working.as long as im laying down they dont swell however as soon as i wake up and hang my legs over the edge of the bed to get up i can feel something like fluid maybe rushing down my legs to my feet, i went to the er and they ruled out my heart, and gave me steroids for 5 days and it worked until the 6th day and then it started all over again.im having blood work done to see if they can find anything reason for this, but im really concerned about this and its hard to wait around, so if anyone has an ideas as to what this may be plz let me know, they also itch when they swell, thansk in advance
