Legs swelling
My grandmother aged about 85 years is complaining of leg swelling. All the kidney and urine related tests are normal according to the urologist. Creatine, urine routine, uric acid everything is normal. But still the legs are swollen. Right leg has more swelling than the left leg. She is saying that from past 2 3 days, she isn't urinating regularly. Before, she was urinating Atleast 3 4 times a day but now it has come down to once in a day. The urologist had prescribed lapiz tablet for this. If she takes the tablet, she will urinate but if she stops that again same problem of legs swelling. What can be the best way to get rid of this? Please suggest remedies. Thank you.

Kindly post urine and blood reports and also get her evaluated for hypothyroidism , cardiac problems and liver dysfunction as they can be the cause of swelling if renal function is normal
