Hello ma'am,
I understand your concern.
It's important to rule out the cause. A very common one is inadequate fluid intake.
The second most common cause is lack of exercise. Since you're working from home it is very likely that your average body movement must be low.
Take care of these things first, if you won't find any difference then we can proceed with the further evolution.
Do this,
- Drink enough water.
- Practice some simple flexion and extension exercises for the lower limb, especially calf muscle.
- Avoid anything which is saur.
Contact for more details.
You can meet me at my clinic.
One is at Karve Nagar and and other one is at Shaniwar Peth.
Happy to help you...!
Health Tips
सूर्यनमस्कार - Is one of the best whole body stretching exercise.
Leg swelling generally occurs because of an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the tissues of the lower extremity. Common causes of leg swelling include idiopathic Edema (Swelling of Unknown Cause), overweight, Is older, salt retention, cellulitis, congestive heart failure, venous insufficiency, pregnancy, and medication side effects.
Some tips that may help reduce swelling:
1. Put your legs on pillows to raise them above your heart while lying down.
2. Exercise your legs. This helps pump fluid from your legs back to your heart.
3. Follow a low-salt diet, which may reduce fluid buildup and swelling.
4. Wear support stockings (sold at most drugstores and medical supply stores).
5. When traveling, take breaks often to stand up and move around.
6. Avoid wearing tight clothing or garters around your thighs.
7. Lose weight if you need to.
