Leg swelling related to fluid buildup. Leg swelling caused by the retention of fluid in leg tissues is known as peripheral edema. It can be caused by a problem with the circulatory system, the lymphatic system or the kidneys. You may also experience swelling due to fluid buildup after sitting or standing for a long time. Factors related to fluid buildup include: 1  Acute kidney failure.  Cardiomyopathy (disease of heart tissue)
In these conditions, there is too much fluid in the body. Other conditions that can cause swelling to one or both legs include: 1  Blood clot. 2  Leg infection. 3  Venous insufficiency (when the veins in your legs are unable to adequately pump blood back to the heart). 4  Varicose veins. 5  Burns (including sunburn). 6  Insect bite or sting. 7  Starvation or malnutrition. 8  Surgery to your leg or foot.
