I was put on strong pain meds couple months ago for and I’ve noticed that my legs feel tight and almost swollen (no pitting noticeable) and i’m starting to think it’s bc of the meds.

I thought maybe this is similar to feeling itchy from opiates? Is this like a histamine response?? Google really isn’t helping - they said it could be peripheral edema but it doesn’t sound like it’s too common with opiates ?

Doctor confirmed no issues with my heart or kidneys -can rule out heart failure lol

Anyone else experience this?
