After chemotherapy leg swelling is metastasis?

After chemotherapy, leg swelling may not be metastatic.

Chemotherapy drugs may affect blood vessels and lymph vessels, causing fluid reflux disorders, resulting in leg swelling. This is a relatively common condition, usually with the passage of time or appropriate treatment gradually relieved. Chemotherapy may affect the patient's appetite and nutrient absorption, resulting in hypoproteinemia, and then cause edema, including legs.

When leg swelling occurs after chemotherapy, comprehensive factors need to be analyzed and evaluated. Doctors generally conduct detailed examinations, such as ultrasound, blood tests, etc., to determine the cause and take appropriate treatment measures. If metastasis is suspected, further imaging or pathological examination may be required to confirm the diagnosis. Patients should inform the doctor in time when this situation occurs, so as to identify the cause and properly handle it as soon as possible.
