Swollen Feet!!!

What can I do abt my swollen feet. At first they wud only swell up when I did a lot of walking & they would go away by morning. Now they hurt all the time & the swelling isnt going down & some of my shoes feel tight. Maybe a warm bath? I havnt taken a bath in a while but they do feel better after I take a hot shower. What else can I do?

Drink lots of water to flush those kidneys out, and soak in an epsom salt bath. Take care.

You have to keep your feet elevated for a while so your blood can circulate. Consuming too much salt can also provoke the swelling so just try to avoid salty foods as much as you can. You can try applying an ice pack on the swollen area.
