Swollen Ankles? It’s Not Always Your Heart! | Venous Edema vs Heart Failure Explained

Got swollen feet or ankles at the end of the day? You’re not alone. But is it a sign of heart failure… or just poor leg vein function? 👨‍⚕ In this 60-sec explainer, Dr. Amonkar breaks it down: • Venous edema is the most common cause—caused by weak valves in your leg veins • Symptoms: Worsens by evening, improves overnight, often affects one leg, may cause mild skin darkening or itch • BP medicines like Amlodipine can also cause swelling • BUT—if both legs swell, with breathlessness or fatigue, get checked for heart, kidney, or liver issues ⚠ Don’t ignore clues like tiredness, chest heaviness, or shortness of breath. 🩺 Get clarity.
