Patient's question:
First of all, thank you for the explanation from Dr. Peng and Fangyu. I don't know how to reply in return, so I'm expressing my gratitude here. I have a question: My uncle has recently been experiencing swelling in his eyes, hands, and legs, which isn't severe. He also has nighttime urination. Could you please tell me what this symptom might indicate?Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of lower extremity edema, including cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases that cause edema, lymphatic return obstruction, hypoproteinemia, liver cirrhosis, respiratory system diseases, etc. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for further detailed examination. Once the cause is diagnosed, symptomatic treatment should be administered.
