Swollen, bloated feet – HELP!!
I just completed the Out of the Darkness walk for Suicide awareness and prevention.
Monday and Tuesday my feet were sore with blisters.
Tuesday evening I noticed that me feet were huge, swollen.
Today (Wednesday) I’ve been raising them on a chair, wearing light sandals, and have taken about 6 alleve.
What can I do to get the swelling down.
I’ve elevated them above my heart for an hour and didn’t notice anything.
Now they are starting to hurt, and starting to feel tingly!!
Any advice??

I have been noticing for a month or so that my left ankle and foot have been swollen at the end of the day. Several years ago I did pull every muscle and tendon in my foot due to a fall. My doctor states that there is nothing that can be done but put my foot up every evening and ice it. This past week I have been an onsite coordinator for an education week, therefore I have been on my feet for long hours each day. I wore good walking shoes with orthotics every day. At the end of each day I have tried to take care by putting my feet up before going to bed.Within the last 48 hours I have been unable to get the swelling down, which extends from my toes to the ankle above the ankle bone. I have been off my feet for the better part of today, but the left ankle still shows little change in the swelling.
