Q: Swollen toes up to knee

I am experiencing pain and swelling from my knee down to my toes. With pain in between my big toe when wearing the sandal that goes between the toes. My feet and ankle are swollen and toes have turned real dark. I can hardly walk from the pain on the inside part of my right leg. It is only affecting my right side. As a matter of fact, my right side from my should down to my feet are swollen, but my upper body does not hurt. However,i can see that the right side of my body is bigger than the left side of my body.. (scary, I know) I do not feel bad, but my lower leg is very painful. Even though I did walk almost a mile today in my sneakers, The shoes gave me a little support, but it still hurt a bit. I have gone to the doctor and they gave me fluid pills, but it does not seem to fix this problem. It keeps going and coming. It last about a week at a time, about every other month.

Please advise if you can.

Thanks
