DOES ANYONE HAVE SWELLING AT SOME OF YOUR MOST PAINFUL SITES. I HAVE SWELLING AT MY RIBCAGE,HIP AND THIGH WHEN MY PAIN GETS THE WORST..THEN OF COURSE GETTING DRESSED SEEMS TO BE TOTALLY OUT OF THE QUESTION. OH MY CALF ALSO. IT KILLS ME FOR SOMEONE TO TOUCH ME IN THOSE SPOTS AND I TELL THE DOCTORS AND THEY JUST LOOK AT ME LIKE I AM CRAZY.I DONT KNOW BUT MAYBE I AM. BUT THEY DO SWELL. HEAT AND ICE DO NOTHING FOR THE SWELLING EITHER. I AM PERPLEXED!!!!
