I have an irrational fear of doctors, so hoping it resolves on its own.

Edit: I’m going to the ER, this seems kinda serious. I hope it’s not DVT, that would complicate getting bottom surgery…

Edit2: I’ve been told it’s an infection. Apparently, a blood test confirmed it. I don’t have a clot and a D-dimer test returned 560 ng/ml, which I’m getting checked again with my GP on Monday. I got some antibiotics (for free) and I’m supposed to take those for a week. Thank you everyone for convincing me to go ❤️

    It could be the sign of a weak heart. I’m not saying you’re in heat failure, but people in heart failure get fluid build up in their feet/ankles because the heart is having trouble pumping the fluid around. This might be a sign you need to get checked out.
