swollen ankles poor circulation

ve noticed both his ankles are swollen. He said they swell then they can go down again. He also said warm weather can make it worse. He went to see a doctor in Italy when he lived there who didn't seem concerned. My father is putting it down to his trouble walking. Any ideas?

Any of you lady's have swollen feet/ankles? I work about 40 hours a week and my feet are killing me. What do you guys do to help your aching feet?

I'm 32 weeks also and really struggling with swollen feet, ankles and hands. I have read up on it and plenty of rest, drinking plenty of water, and bending and stretching ankles and toes to improve circulation is just a few things you can do. I am not having much success myself. It is much worse to be pregnant in the summer and swelling. Only advice I have is those things I have listed and ask you doctor. If sweeping starts in other places like you face etc, it could be preeclampsia.

I had really bad swollen ankles and toes with my first two girls but I didn't drink as much water as I have this round with my boy..plus with my girls I worked in restaurants and are a lot of unhealthy foods.. I'm not swollen yet but with my pregnancy history I take precaution they get swollen after a long day but my pillows are the best thing that ever happened to me...

At first just my ankles were swollen now everything is. My legs arms fingers. Is this normal?

You just have to be careful and not keep them crossed for a long period of time because you have a lot more blood when you are pregnant and crossing your legs and arms and even sitting can cause poor circulation. You may notice that it's easy for your legs to fall asleep more often pregnant especially near the later months when your ankles start to swell. It will just cause you discomfort and has nothing to do with your little bundle of joy.

My feet and ankles have also been swollen!

Yeah like my hands are a little swollen but not much but they feel like they are super swollen. It hurts so bad.

In the past 5 years I have experienced a substantial amount of hair loss and poor circulation in my fingers and toes. I have had blood test done several times and all levels are always normal. Any suggestions as to the cause of this or prevention?

So I went to the dermotologist and he says that I have Cutis Marmorata (or marble skin) which is from poor circulation and blood flow which may be cause by a blood disorder, vitamin deficiency or lyme lupus etc. He is running every blood test under the sun. I definitely have been noticing tingling and swelling in hands and feet. I'm really nervous about what this could mean! Any idea or experience with this diagnosis.

Hi, I had a mystery virus 3 years ago that was very intense with high fever, chills, tonsil stuff, etc...then had tingling and burning feelings in my feet and hands along with weakness...it all went away after a few weeks...it wasn't strep, mono or the flu...now the tingling, buzzing feelings, burning feelings, weakness, etc...are back!!! they've been back for like 3-4 weeks now and not to mention I'm always tired throughout the day...

Keep drinking lots of water and try to keep moving to keep circulation. If you ankles and feet are really getting bad sometimes they will have you wear tent hose (special socks) which promote circulation. Also keep your feet up when you can, when I feel my ankles swelling at work and I cant keep my feet up I will do ankle pumps to keep things circulating.

Every morning or any time I take a nap and wake up, I wake up to my hands so swollen. I understand if I sleep on them, the blood flow slows down and leaves you with that tingly numb feeling and then it goes away but lately its been taking awhile for my hands to go back to normal. Including my wrist, just trying to push myself off the bed to use the bathroom they feel like they wanna break :( so uncomfortable. Sometimes my fingers just feel like they need to be popped / cracked but wont.

I just developed this tiny, pin size spots around my ankles. I am concerned that it can be poor circulation cause it runs in the family. Could you please tell me what it could be. I don't have insurance, job or money to see a dermatologist. I am not lucky enough to qualify for any help because I am a single woman. Help me please!

I read that you can check for your pulse in your feet and ankles, which is a good indicator of circulation. I can feel the pulse in both spots on both feet, although it's not a strong pulse like you get on your carotid artery, but definitely there and easy enough to find. I was wondering if this is a problem. My husband and I are planning on having another baby, but I don't want to start trying until I find out if this is normal.

hopefully its nothing serious. .I have poor circulation problems anyways and being pregnant has made it worse...lol!!!I keep telling myself only 4 more weeks!! Hope its nothing serious and good luck! !

When I sit or lay down for even a short period of time, when I get up my legs and ankles feel like they can't hold my weight, I never had this problem until I became pregnant but am only 6 weeks? Any advice? Or anyone having same issue?

My feet, ankles and lower legs tend to swell most days, especially if I'm up on my feet all day (at work for example). But the doctor isn't concerned. I puff up all day and piddle all night. Perhaps it's just my old blood vessels aren't working as well as they used to. Don't have varicose veins so who knows? I follow a low sodium diet just because it's the smart thing to do. Also learned more about it when my Dad was diagnosed with heart failure. Wanted to support him.

I have been experiencing very bloated, swollen, painful, stiff ankles for about a year now. If my pressure goes up above 110 over 70 flat, then my ankles swell a lot, and it takes doubling up on all hypertension medications to break the cycle and come all the way down to 110 over 70 flat.

Leg cramps could also be do to poor circulation. Try walking or cycling. Stretch out ur legs. U can start with formula as soon as u wanted 2. Regular milk if I remember correctly doesn't get introduced til they are 1.

I noticed my fingers get very swollen at night when I'm sleeping and my feet I think are starting to as well. I'm 34 weeks is anyone else getting swollen at night and why?

I'm 37 weeks and my feet and ankles have been Swollen for over a week now and now my hands are starting n I'm gaining 5 pounds a week! My feet actually feel bruised n so do my ankles is this normal? Anyone else?
