YES.
If the kidneys are not functioning properly you will get water retention causing swelling of feet and ankles.
Maybe if the boots don't fit. Otherwise, your footwear shouldn't make your ankles swell up, no. You might have a circulation problem - if it keeps up, see a doctor about it.

http://myhealth-net.blogspot.com health care in this site checkout Swelling in the ankles/feet can be caused by liver problems. One of the signs of liver failure is swelling in the legs. The liver cannot remove the toxins efficiently, so they accumulate in the legs. I know this because I had a co-worker that was being treated for liver failure (on a transplant list) His legs had been swollen for quite some time. At first he was told to watch his salt and elevate his feet. He was disappointed in his HMO, because he felt that the doctor should have picked up earlier on the liver issues due to the swelling he was experiencing.
Drinking too much and not getting enough exercise will cause swelling. Keep taking your Cozaar, lay off the booze and get some moderate exercise every day or so -- and eat healthy foods without too much salt or fat in them.
Coffee can help cause kidney stones. Kidney stones form in the kidneys and cause great pain to the kidneys and urinary tract.
yes....severe for me
No it is not and your swollen ankles means you are retaining water. If you are on medications some meds can cause swelling of the ankles and feet. A pulse of 40 is low so I suggest you get to your doctor immediately. I am not trying to panic you, but these symptoms can be mean heart problems to kidney problems. If on any medications then your doctor needs to know what side effects you are experiencing and either adjust the dose or put you on another medication. There could be other causes, but, if you see your doctor now there is no reason you can't control whatever situation is causing the low pulse and the swelling.
Illnesses that cause a body rash and swollen feet ankles are lupus, chicken pox, and viral arthritis. Kidney disease can also have these symptoms.
Treatment for swollen ankles depends on the cause of the swelling. For example. if the swelling is caused by injury or overuse, then resting and taking an anti-inflammatory might be in order. On the other hand, if the swelling is due to water retention, drinking plenty of water and elevating your feet may be helpful.
Yes, consuming too much salt can cause ankle/foot swelling. Because over consumption will cause the body to retain more water, the ankles can swell from the water retention.
It usually would not do this unless it affects kidney function.

i dont think they would cause kidney failure, but it would cause lots of other problems.

The medication Pentasa can cause kidney function problems but not complete failure. It also can cause chest pain and trouble breathing.
one of the problems could be caused by the kidney. you might have kidney problems or kidney disease. if any of this happens to you, you should go see the doctor fast. if you do not, it can get worse and it may cause serious injuries or death.
