What is a long-term solution for my wife's constant calf pain and ankle swelling in both legs, which has lasted for a month and only gets temporary relief from Hifenac-P?
While Hifenac-P (aceclofenac and paracetamol) provides temporary relief, it does not treat the underlying cause of her bilateral leg swelling and calf pain, which could stem from circulation issues like venous insufficiency or fluid retention. Long-term use of these pain relievers is not recommended as it can affect her stomach and kidneys. For a lasting solution, she needs a thorough medical evaluation, possibly including a blood test and a leg ultrasound (Doppler). Please consult a physician soon to identify the exact cause and start a safe, targeted treatment plan.
