Bilateral weakness of lower extremities (paraparesis/plegia) Lesion: Spinal cord, peripheral nerve. UMN signs: Anterior cord syndrome (compression, ischemia, demyelination) if contralateral pain and temperature sensory disturbance. Cauda equina: Loss of perianal sensation, loss of rectal tone, or urinary retention.
Unilateral edema suggests local insults like DVT, cellulitis, venous obstruction, or lymphatic obstruction from tumor and radiation treatment. On the other hand, bilateral edema suggests systemic diseases such as CHF, liver failure, kidney disease, or severe malabsorption syndromes.
