Hi all
Every summer my legs/ankles and feet swell. This time though it is painful to touch the front of my legs. Does anyone else get this? Are there any meds you can take to reduce it?
Thanks
Hi, I get the swollen feet and ankles with the heat…I do raise them whenever possible. But if the day includes me sitting in my wheelchair a lot, it`s a problem.
I was told a lymphodema massage will help. When we dont walk or just walk a little, lymph system doesnt work well and we need a massage that goes upwards towards the heart to encourage movement.

There is some general advice on the NHS site.
