I'm experiencing something a bit oddmy feet swell up every evening but then go back to normal by the morning, and there's no pain with it. I usually go for walks both in the morning and evening. A while back, my right knee was swollen and painful, and I massaged it with sarson oil, which helped the knee, but now my feet are having this issue. I did the RA factor test, and it came back negative. My cholesterol is at 215.11 mgdl, but otherwise, my reports were normal. I'm just wondering what could be causing this swelling in my feetany insights?

Consider consulting a md physician to rule out underlying conditions, and in the meantime, try elevating your legs above the level of your heart while sitting, reducing salt intake, staying hydrated, and wearing compression socks to alleviate evening foot swelling, which may be related to your evening walks, improved knee condition, or elevated cholesterol.

Could you help me out with finding someone in Delhi who can properly administer the pencompenidure 1.2M unit injection that I've been getting every 21 days? I've been doing this for the past 10 years, but since moving here last year, it's been tough to find a good person for the job. The last physician I went to didn't quite do it right. I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any recommendations.

For pushing the injection of PencomPenidure 1.2M unit, you can consult with a healthcare professional such as a nurse or a medical assistant who is experienced in administering injections. They can help you with the injection at the recommended interval of 21 days.
