9670550 tn?1408662984 Have you been checked at the doctor for preeclampsia? High blood pressure? Protein in urine? Extreme swelling is a symptom. But besides eating less salt....drink LOTS more water. Lay down and stay off your feet when you can. Wear comfortable clothes. DO NOT wear leggings or any other type of tight pants like that when you're at home. Keep your feet elevated, feet above heart. Talk to your doctor about it!

Avatar f tn I had it bad first pregnancy too and developed preeclampsia. It's been so hot here as its summer and have been getting swollen feet lots! I'm 24+3 at the moment. Drink water, keep your feet up when you can during the day, have some time at night to put your feet higher up, I use a hot water bottle by my feet at night that has been in the freezer all day it's amazing! Look into some Yoga stretching for your feet/ankles too that helps!

Avatar f tn Many elderly women show up in the emergency room with peripheral edema or swollen feet due to congestive heart failure (which is a chronic condition). When I was pregnant, I had ONE foot swell terribly. That was a vein issue in my case. And I had pregnancy hypertension and had pitting edema overall. (good times . . . loved it so much I did it twice, ha ha). Another common reason for this kind of edema is kidney issues. And liver issues. The list goes on.

Just want to see if anyone can relate or have advice on how to relieve them.

360318 tn?1340393363 Hello, my feet have been swollen for about a week now and I am not sure if I should be worried. They are the only part of my body that is swollen. I have read online to try putting my feet up, and I do at home, but they are still swollen. Also, exercise. Well I have done zumba 2 times this week, but the more I do it, the more my feet hurt. My right one hurts, the left one doesn't. I am not sure what else I can do. None of my shoes fit me right now, so they all hurt to wear.
