Swollen legs

2018-04-04 17:36:52
My grandfather all of a sudden has got severely swollen feet since a month or two. He recently has changed his seating to chair at the office. He has been sitting crossed leg though for years. We speculated the change in sitting is the culprit. But someone advised us to get a cardiac check and see a nephrologist as well. What should we do now ?
