Swollen ankles

[lankeela]

In June I flew to Finland, and during the flight and since then my ankles have been swollen and puffy, as though they are filled with fluid. Any suggestions for relieving this?

Drink plenty of Water, eat properly, walk around a lot and when sitting down sit with your Legs raised.

I always get some water tablets from the health shop or supermarket. Some are just herbal, but they help get rid of excess fluid.

A cup of coffee first thing in the morning helps relieve water retention. Coffee is a diuretic

To stop this happening again you need to keep moving your feet and try to walk about on the plane.My friend flew to Oz and couldn,t put on his shoes when he got there.Kepp them tapping to get good blood flow
