Hey everyone, did anyone have swelling as early as this? Just wanting to know if it is normal or something that needs to be brought up with my GP

It would be worth the conversation. I'm quite swollen but I do that in the heat. Try soaking your feet in cool water and see if it helps

Thanks

The heat definitely doesn't help. Keep your legs raised where possible and drink plenty of fluids.

@mistletoeprickles and sel2223 thank you for your replies, thought I'd update you.. went GP the following day and figured it was mostly heat related. Swelling has gone down since thankfully. Also BP was fine so nothing alarming, thank God!
