Hi, I have swelling on my body, specially on my feet, legs, face and stomach. I have high cholesterol. Could it be due to high cholesterol. My age is 43. Doctor told me that they can't give me any medicine for high cholesterol in this age.

How much is your cholesterol? Up to 300 is good. Swelling is commonly due to restrictions in diet. Don't measure cholesterol, improve your diet. Increase traditional health foods, reduce sugar jaggery and starchy foods.
