swollen ankles from heat

Swollen feet, ankles, and legs are totally normal for the stage of pregnancy you're in. I was so swollen with my first that I was swollen from my knees down!! It was horrible LOL.

I was a waitress when I was pregnant with my son, and was constantly swollen from the knee down. PLUS I ended up having to quit at 25 weeks because I was having a lot of braxton hicks contractions, and I had a jerk for a assistant manager, that's a whole other story. BUT at least make sure you're drinking enough water!

Woke up this morning with swollen knees. My legs, feet and ankles are not swollen, but they are sore. My omg my knees hurt. :( I'm planning on putting a heating pad on them. Hopefully that helps. Just a little bit longer! 6 more weeks!

I also noticed both of my ankles (around the bone) was a little swollen when I got home. Today they are not as bad. I was wondering if swollen joints can be a symptom of lyme..I haven't heard much about it. I was also a little dizzy and slightly "out of it" that night. I must have walked a good 5 miles and my calfs were tight when I woke up this morning. I got a little sunburn on my legs and those areas tingled more than usual. Strange stuff!

17 weeks pregnant and I'm having swollen ankles. In the mornings they are normal,but by the evening they are a little swollen. Just wonder if that's normal this soon in my pregnancy.

i'm 34 weeks and have been experiencing swollen ankles even in the morning when I wake up is this normal?

yea def swollen, prop them up try to keep off of them for a while, drink lots of liquid and a heat pad, and even ice pad should help the swelling go down as well... and not to scare you but if you notice anymore swelling or if this doesnt help go see your doctor as swelling is a sign of preclampsia and not having had it with your other kids it may mean something other than just swelling cause of weight!!

in the evening my ankles and feet were really swollen. The swelling went away during the night, yesterday no problems. Today i had to sit proper on a hard chair/stand walk, and now again my feet and ankles are like balloons, my toes are a bit numb too... Does anyone have tips to keep your feet from swelling (or make it less badly atleast) when i can't put my feet up? And tips on how to make the swelling go away?

just a mixture of being on my feet at work and from the heat. Anyone know of anything besides laying down that could help with the soreness and puffiness..could i put ice on them? Anything for the soreness?

ve just had my baby (just under 33 weeks) but when I was around 20 weeks it was really hot and my feet were swollen to, its just the heat. Try and put your feet up and keep wriggling your toes n flexing your feet it helps take some of the swelling down.

I have got swollen ankles and wrists which have only started since last week. Should I be concerened about the sudden weight gain?

Its 33*C where i live and it is unbearable, swollen ankles and hands, hot flushes and feeling faint! I hate summer!

More than anything, i will notice my ankles swollen after a night of drinking. i try to elevate my feet as much as possible when i am sitting at a desk or lounging. I am 30 years old, 6' 175 lbs. I eat right and stay in shape. The one unhealthy thing i do to my body is binge drink one sometimes two nights a week. i have probably had this for about 8 years.

Did you ever figure out what the issue is? I also have swollen ankles, feet, and lower legs too. My doctor is sending me to neurology. It's so bad sometimes I can't walk well and I pull muscles/tendons. It can also be very painful. I don't have the red splotches or numb spots that you describe. Like you, I watch my sodium, don't sit or stand for too long, and have had all the blood tests I should.

So I am 5 weeks pregnant and I have really swollen feet and ankles right now. I don't remember this happening until my third trimester last time. Has anyone else experienced this in such early pregnancy?

I was wondering how many of you have swollen feet and / or ankles this summer?? Craig's feet are so swollen today that he can't see his ankle bones. I was wondering how common this is??

I've been swelling in my legs, ankles, feet, & hands for a few years, & I'm just recently receiving the help I've been desperately seeking. My GI doctor has ordered a liver biopsy to begin a round of treatment for Hep C (my second round) but she hasn't confirmed if my swelling is from the Hep. My question is: can chronic Hep C cause severe swelling in basically everything?

Have someone massage your feet going from toes up to your ankles and calfs going upwards so you push the fluid away from your ankle and not into your ankle. Avoid salt, drink lots of water and keep your feet up as much as you can. When you sleep see if you can put a foot on a pillow. If it is not getting better you can get special socks called tent hoes that help circulation, your dr. might have some of check out online or a store.

My ankles and calfs are really swollen. Im 22 weeks and 3 days. My doc says its normal but im worried because i lost my water bag at time during my last pregnancy. Any advice?

usually when my feet and ankles swell its from retaining water.

Last two days my ankles have swollen to twice thier size at work besides drinking lots of water through out the day and resting when I get home. What else should I do? Im 25 weeks, and sit in an office for work.

I've been having major problems with swollen ankles over and over. I am on a salt free diet and I eat as healthy as I possibly can. Does anyone else have the symptom of swelling and what do you do about it? My concern is that the area that swells is getting larger. One day last week my legs were swollen all the way up to my knees.
