Delivered 3 weeks back and my legs and feet are still so swollen, didnt expect this after delivery honestly. My saas keeps saying it will go on its own but its bohot uncomfortable. Anyone found something that helped reduce it?
Postpartum swelling is common, but it's very important to monitor your blood pressure. Please consult your gynac to ensure it's not preeclampsia. Do not take any home remedies or pills without checking with them.
Light walking can really help improve blood circulation and reduce postpartum swelling, but make sure your doctor has cleared you for physical activity first. Don't rush into heavy exercise. Start slow and stay hydrated.
Drinking warm cumin (jeera) water gently helped me flush out extra fluids. But if the swelling is suddenly very high or you feel dizzy, please consult your doctor immediately as it could be a sign of high blood pressure.
Beta, post-delivery you should avoid sitting with your legs hanging down. Drink lukewarm water, eat ajwain water, and keep your feet covered. Give your body some time to heal naturally.
