I am having excessive swelling in myfeet
I have been taking medicine for swelling, but my feet have been swollen for the past 5-days. I occasionally get swollen feet, but never this long. They feel like they are filled with fluid, and tight. When I lay down and prop them up, above heart level, the swelling barely goes down. And the medics does not seem to be that effective.
