I'm really worried because doctors are suggesting that I need to have my finger amputated due to gangrene. I'm terrified of going through with it and was wondering if there's any chance it can be treated without amputation. Are there other methods out there, like ayurveda or alternative treatments, that could help? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I've had swelling in my lower leg near the ankle for about five years now, and I've also noticed some numbness around the last two toes on my left leg. I'm currently taking Losartan H as a maintenance dose. My blood pressure is normal, and I don't have diabetes. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do next?
Long standing edema in the leg needs a proper examination. Oedema in the legs can be majorly due to some heart problem or kidney damage.
