So much pain!

My legs and ankles are swollen so bad that I can't stand on them just walking around makes it hurt more. Plus my knees have been bothering me. Is there anything I can do to make the swelling go down? I've took Tynol but I does nothing for me, I'm also elevating and I put a ice pack on my feet.  What to do??

Keep your feet elevated. When you're laying down put pillows so they're higher than your heart

Fill a bathtub up with water, pour Epsom salt in the water, and soak your feet in it for 30 minutes. Also drink LOTS of water.
