Dr. Stephen Kolakowski :
Good teaching point. Pitting edema is a finding, not a diagnosis, and the pattern matters. One-sided swelling can raise concern for venous obstruction or DVT, while swelling in both legs may reflect chronic venous insufficiency, medications, heart, kidney, or other systemic causes. From a vascular standpoint, I always want to know when it started, whether it’s one leg or both, and whether there’s pain, redness, skin change, or shortness of breath. The legs often give us important clues about what’s happening elsewhere in the body.

Can pitting still happen occasionally and still be normal if it goes away on its own? Sometimes I get it with heat or being on my feet longer than normal

I work aa desk job, night shift, three 12s a week. for those 3 days, my feet and ankles swell, assuming because I don't get the opportunity to walk around a lot. But on my days off, the swelling goes down, what does that mean,

why do you wear compression socks - is it because you’re on your feet all day at work?

Why only pitting? I have horrible swelling in only my right leg but it doesn’t pit.
