Swollen feet easily fatigued
Very easily out of breath. Just walking up a flight of stairs, I get winded. Began a week ago after walking a bit more than a block (out of breath and hips hurt) getting worse. Feet and ankles are now swollen (2 days) and hurt when pressure is applied.

I would advise you to do a complete cardiological check up, do investigations such as ECG, ECHO report, Renal function test, X-Ray chest and CBC. To reduce the swelling on the feet, keep the leg raised while sitting and lying down(place 2 pillows under the feet). Place your feet in cold water with some salt added to it which will help reduce the swelling.
Kindly visit a general medicine or cardiologist at earliest
