What is the reason for right side body swelling?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com. Right side swelling could be due to edema, allergic inflammation or infection. I would suggest you to consult a physician and have a physical examination as soon as possible. You may need to carry out complete blood count, liver and kidney function test, heart ultrasound, total proteins in body and thyroid profile.

Welcome back to icliniq.com. Yes, there could be a blood clot which can lead to edema (swelling) due to obstruction to flow leading to increased hydrostatic pressure in the venous system and causing swelling. A Doppler study can confirm it, but common causes should be ruled out first.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com. Since it is present for four days it cannot be ignored and warrants medical evaluation. If I was your treating doctor, then I would have carried out D-Dimer followed by Doppler to rule out DVT - deep vein thrombosis, which is my main concern right now. Other causes could be kidney or liver disease, heart disease, low serum proteins, hypothyroidism, chronic venous insufficiency, abdominal or pelvic CT imaging to rule out any growth causing venous compromise, pulmonary hypertension and some medications. Once the cause is removed the swelling will automatically subside.
