My face has started looking so puffy lately, especially in the mornings, and honestly it makes me feel a bit self conscious. Im in my third trimester now. Did anything help u reduce the swelling? open to any tips.
My amma told me to reduce salty pickles and drink more water, and it did help the puffiness. I also rested with my feet up. But I always told my gynac at visits so they could keep an eye on it na.
Mild puffiness is one thing, but sudden facial swelling can be linked to high BP like it was for me. Please dont just try to prevent it at home if it comes on fast, get your blood pressure checked. Better safe than sorry with this one.
Cut down extra salt, stay hydrated, keep your legs up when resting and dont stand too long. That kept my swelling in check. But sudden swelling with headache or vision changes is a red flag, get your BP checked right away.
