Fatty leggs
Feb 14, 2009

From my feet to my kneese are very puffy and when I press on them I leave a dent.Should I see profretional help?

Response from Dr. Henry

From your description it sounds like you having some pedal edema which could indicate a problem with kidneys, heart, liver, ,nutrition, or lymph drainage out of lower extremities. The role of HIV or its treatment in those condition depends on which drug and which stage of HIV you are in . KH
