Help; Feet legs swollen and have been trying to keep them up but/

But my hind end hurts so bad from being on it so long. I can't stretch out on my side or my tummy. Any suggestions on helping my bottom?

How are you spending most of your time? Are you on the couch? In bed? In a chair?

In a recliner with my legs up to elevate. I'm very uncomfortable in bed,

Maybe try getting up every 45 min. And walk for 15, while walking squeeze your glutes (buttock), one cheek at a time.

What does your Dr. say about swelling?

Hi,

I think you should really talk with your doc. about the swelling to make sure that it is nothing else. I had my surgery on Oct. and I have not had any problems with swelling. Just my back bothers me and some discomfort every now and then. But the one thing I am trying to do is move around, because I noticed my legs feels tight from sleeping or laying around too much. I hope you feel better!

I have a condition that causes me to swell. I've struggled with it for about four years. During the surgery and seven days after I wasn't on my meds that control it and now I am in a mess. I wish the would have been able to keep giving them to me during this whole process.
