How to Stop Fluid Leaking from Legs (Weeping Legs)

Diuretics

Diuretics are not basically useful in stopping fluid leaking from weeping legs caused by lymphovenous disease. Nevertheless, fluid leakage and lower-limb swelling would be caused by various reasons, such as heart failure, drug therapy, cancer, or renal disease. In these cases, diuretics can be effective in preventing fluid leakage and swelling. Regardless of the selected options, it is very important to discuss with your healthcare provider carefully before taking the drugs. Also, make sure to follow the instructions and take the right dosages to prevent possible side effects. [5]
