<s>[INST] BADLY SWOLLEN LEG AND FOOT WITH A LARGE RED RASH WITH BUMPS ACCOMPANING THE RASH.  WHAT IS THIS .  NO PAIN, SLIGHTLY ITCHY TO TOUCH. MANY YEARS AGO I TORE UP SOME KNEE PARTS WHEN I CHASED A FOOTBALL . THE RECOVERY LEFT SOME CIRCULATION PROBLEMS BELOW THE KNEE. I AM RECOVERING SLOWLY FROM A RIGHT SIDE STROKE INCURRED DURING A HIP REPAIR LAST JUNE 15TH 2012.       ANY IDEA WHAT THIS IS OR WHAT I SHOULD DO.? [/INST] Hi, Thanks for writing to us. The complaints of swelling, itchy red rashes over legs are related to your circulation problem. Poor circulation leads to stasis of blood leading to sucChatDoctorplaints. This is known as stasis eczema. Use of compression bandage, application of steroid cream and leg elevation would help you. Also consult a vascular surgeon regarding your circulation problem. Hope that helped. Take care </s>
