Swellings on my body

I am a 23-year-old woman. For the past two months, I have noticed some swellings on my body. These swellings usually come and disappear by themselves. Kindly let me know what to do.

Swellings on the body can occur due to many reasons ranging from allergies to issues with your blood pressure, blood sugar among other problems. In view of the complexity of the issues involved, comprehensive medical and Laboratory investigations will be required to confirm the diagnosis and the way forward. A visit to the nearest medical facility will therefore be a good idea.
