Did not know about this or that about Viagra, not be using it as yet as my ankles don't swell so much these days.Heres another one for you Jeff the tablets they give for male benign prostrate problems can help problems for ladies with bladder issues. Iwas given it for something else but it really releived and controlled the bladder. So it would pay doctors and chemists to look more deeply into what the tablets can do or listen to pateints comments too.

Maybe viagra reduces leg swelling by diverting the blood elsewhere?

I was in Southampton for a month all patients wore compression stockings the whole time, we could take them off for 1/2 hour a day. Staff checked we had them on too. When I left I was given two pairs, wear them for a month, take them off 1/2 hr a day. That's the only hospital I've been in that has done that. Stockings certainly work, I had a DVT around 10 years ago and was given stockings which squeezed my legs back into shape. Every so often after that my right leg would swell so I'd put them back on, fixed the problem. Stick at it make sure they are the right size, bleeding tight is correct.
