Hello. My mom is suffering from itching and burning sensation (jalan) on head and below foot. It is happening more when summer approaches. This all started with chikungunya fever back in 2008-2009. She got fever and then body ache and after that this ache did not go forever. She is facing below problems: 1> burning sensation (jalan) on head and foot 2> nerves of back foot gets swollen if she walks more. Currently she takes bp medicine. Can anyone suggest how to eliminate this jalan from her foot and head?

Is her bp under control. Or us she diabetic. Leg swelling generally occurs because of an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the tissues of the lower extremity. Common causes of leg swelling include idiopathic edema (swelling of unknown cause), overweight, is older, salt retention, cellulitis, congestive heart failure, venous insufficiency, pregnancy, and medication side effects. Some tips that may help reduce swelling: 1.Put your legs on pillows to raise them above your heart while lying down. 2.Exercise your legs. This helps pump fluid from your legs back to your heart. 3.Follow a low-salt diet, which may reduce fluid buildup and swelling. 4.Wear support stockings (sold at most drugstores and medical supply stores). 5.When traveling, take breaks often to stand up and move around. 6.Avoid wearing tight clothing or garters around your thighs. 7.Lose weight if you need to.
