Swelling in right ankle.

Hello,

 

My mum is currently suffering with a swollen right ankle and lower leg, it gets worse sometimes but never fully disappears. She has had it looked at once but they don't see a problem with it, but surely she shouldn't have it this long. She is currently being treating for terminal pancreatic cancer on gemcitibine. 
 

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

 

Thank you
