Swelling

My feet are very swollen and sore. Is there anything I can do (other than keep my feet raised above my heart and sleep on my left side) that might help reduce the swelling or ease the pain? Thanks in advance.

Reduce your salt and sugar intake. Drink lots of water to flush those kidneys out.

Put ice on the swelling for 15 min at a time. And I know it sounds crazy, but drink plenty if water!
