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?

After breast abscess surgery, I noticed a reddish lump under the skin of my right leg below the knee, followed by swelling and ankle pain. The doctor diagnosed it as erythema nodosum and prescribed Predmet 8 twice daily for 3 days, which helped at first swelling and pain went away. But then it came back, so the doctor reduced the dose to Predmet 4 twice daily for 2 days. Now the swelling and pain are worse again. What could be going on and what should I do next?
Erythema nodosum, diagnosed after breast abscess surgery, presents as painful, reddish or purple bumps under the skin, often on the shins, but can appear elsewhere, including the legs.
