Seems the consensus is, when you get swollen ankles and retain too much
water - you're not drinking enough water? I think I drink plenty. But
apparently not. After a full day I come home and have swollen ankles that
got a lot worse after starting induction.
# Have you talked to your Dr. about this? There are medi-socks or stocking
to relieve this problem.
Quoted message said:I walk a lot at work. Possibly a couple of miles or so. But I do get to
sit in front of the PC as well. This ankle business has been getting
worse.
# Can you use a box or something to raise your feet off the floor? Another
suggestion I saw in the papers was to not sit for more than 30 minutes at a
time with feet on the floor - get up and walk a little, step from foot to
foot.
Quoted message said:Please advise from personal experiences. Perhaps, natural remedies?
Herbs?
Quoted message said:Or just "pump that water."
# Slogging unneeded amounts of water wont cure this. Do you have any
known circulatory issues?
Quoted message said:Appreciate all inputs.
Best Regards,
