A week ago, I noticed something strange occur. On that Saturday, I woke up and noticed that the top of my right foot was swollen. I didn't notice anything unusual, no cuts or bruises. Then Sunday, I woke up to find my foot even more swollen and my ankle swelling as well, as well as the ankle turned a bright redish/purple. This occurred while I was sleeping. I went in to see my primary and he couldn't figure it out. He started with gout, but I've had that before and have no pain. He then thought Cellulitis, but there was nothing to indicate that either. So he put me on an anti-inflammatory and antibiotic and said to come back in a week. After a week of treatment, my foot/ankle have gone unchanged. Today they did a blood test for electrolytes, blood count, cholesterol, and all that. Everything came back normal. So they gave me a prescription for something that is supposed to get rid of the fluid buildup, but once again they had no answers beyond "take these meds and see us in a week".
The only change that I've noticed is that my ankle is starting to get little tinges of pain when I flex it in a certain direction. Beyond that, I can walk on the foot without pain. The only thing that is uncomfortable is the fact that I have to wear sandals because my shoes won't fit over my foot (the top of the foot is indeed that swollen). The foot itself is not discolored in any way, it's only the ankle.
So any possible ideas would be appreciated. I hate thinking that going through all this isn't getting to the issue at hand and I'm worried that if I keep walking around on it I'm going to cause something else to go wrong.
