Body which location is getting swelling ?
By eyes do you mean ...around the eye or the eyelids .?
Do you have hypertension or any kidney problems ?.
Do you get swelling of your legs ?
Thyroid ( hypothyroidism may be the cause ) but we need to rule out renal / kidney pathology and cardiac and liver diseases .
Few other relevant history is needed .kindly consult privately in chat for more detailed evaluation.
Next Steps
for checking thyroid - TSH, FT3 and Ft4
for renal - kft and urine analysis (for proteins and glucose .)
cardiac - echo to see the condition of the heart
Health Tips
1)restrict your salt and water intake till further evaluation or results are not available .
2) increase your protein intake ( as sometimes edema maybe due to protein loss from the body)
consult over chat for evaluation .
