Swollen Feet Is Poor Circulation Ruining Your Life Get relief from pain and swelling
Swollen Feet and Swollen Ankles
Swollen feet or swollen ankles can be caused by poor circulation in the legs, but there can be an underlying health problem that will cause your feet to swell as a side effect. Not only can your feet swell but you may also experience puffy ankles, joint pain and occasionally, numbness.
I have recently discovered how inconvenient and disrupting it is to suffer from swollen feet and painful ankles. My problems started when I went on holiday only to discover that the hotel that we had been booked into, was right on the top of a hill.
This meant either walking down a very long road, or taking a short cut down steps with a very steep descent that involved at least four hundred steps. suffice to say that the going down was not the problem, it was the coming back up. Obviously if you are in your twenties and thirties it would probably have been fine. At first I found that after a few days of this exercise, my legs felt quite solid and the muscle seemed to be bulking up nicely. On returning home I noticed that my feet and ankles had become very swollen.
So what causes our feet to swell? In this article we will take a comprehensive look at why we get swollen feet and swollen ankles. As you will see, the problem can vary between an inconvenient swelling, to a more deeply rooted medical problem.
First of all we have to take a look at why we get bad circulation and swelling. In my case it was my own fault because I decided to ruin my muscles by thinking and acting like a teenager climbing up four hundred very steep steps. But of course there are many reason why your feet and legs will swell up and your circulation will feel sluggish and painful.
1.Hypertension. Hypertension is common in middle age and elderly people. It is caused by cholesterol plaque deposits building up along the walls of arteries, making them harden and feel much more constricted. The circulation of your blood becomes much more harder to pump around your legs, hence the swelling and pain.
2.Varicose veins. poor circulation can be caused by these very painful and unsightly veins seeming to bulge out to the side of your legs and, if knocked, can bleed quite profusely. This can be very dangerous and if this occurs, must be dealt with straight away at the hospital as it can cause all sorts of problems. Varicose veins are caused by a loss of elasticity in the vein walls, caused by cholesterol plaque again, and eating the right foods and taking enough exercise should help to keep these at bay for as long as possible.
3.Buergers disease. Buergers disease is a common illness caused by smoking. it is a chronic inflammation of the veins and arteries in your legs and feet. So the earlier you stop smoking, the better!
4.Peripheral arterial disease. Known as PAD. This is a very serious problem with blood flow to the arteries caused again, surprise, by plaque getting into your veins. This is a form of Atherosclerosis , which is a leading cause of death and involves all the major arteries of the body. The problem starts when you are involved in any form of exercise or exertion. Because the blood cannot be carried around your body, along with the extra oxygen you need to perform any sort of physical activity, you will become short of breath, and your legs will swell causing pain or aching, sometimes even cramping and tired, but this will be in the legs and not the joints. The most severe form will cause tissue necrosis which means that the oxygen cannot reach the legs or the feet, and the tissue will die.
5. Thrombosis or embolism. I think we are all aware of these, but if you are not, I will give a short explanation. Thrombosis or embolism occurs when a blood clot forms within a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood around the Circulatory system. This can be lethal in that if the blood clot travels to the heart or the lungs, death will occur.
So, you can see that there are many forms and reasons why we suffer Poor Circulation. But the question is, what can we do about it?
Herbs for Circulation
There are many herbs, that you can use for circulation. Below is just a few that I found to be familiar names that we can all buy quite easily.
Onions, Garlic, Ginger, and Ginko biloba are just a few that are very good for circulation of your legs and feet. Ginko biloba is in fact sold specifically for that reason. Cayenne itself is also very good, it stimulates the heart, regulates blood flow and and even more importantly strengthens the arteries and capillaries. Great stuff. So along with a daily dose of Ginko Biloba, which is also an anti inflammatory, these herbs all help to improve the blood flow, which in turns supplies more oxygen to the heart and lungs and if this wasn't enough, makes you breath more easily! Also it reduces cramps in the legs and cleans the blood! So when you decide to go for a run, you will be able to breath better, not get cramp, your legs will not swell like a mutant lemon and you won't bruise so easily if you fall over! Can't be bad, can it?
Circulation Boosters and electronic feet massagers
Circulation Booster v3. This is a relatively new machine that is great to boost your circulation while you are sitting at a desk or at home.
How does the Circulation Booster work?
Electrical impulses stimulate the nerve endings in the soles of your feet, and the muscles in your lower legs. This makes your calf muscles visibly contract and release, which improves your circulation. It has specific programmes to treat all conditions. The bonus is that as it is remote controlled, you can just sit back and relax while it does all the work.
There are also a number of feet and legs massage machines to improve your circulation, which come in all shapes and sizes to fit into your lifestyle. See Below.
Leg massage for your Circulation

- What Is Achilles Tendinitis? Prevention And Treatment
A step by step guide on how to treat a damaged Achilles Tendon.
So there you have it. If you feel that you need to boost Circulation in your legs because of pain or swelling, there are so many ways to help you overcome this problem. The trouble is, when you have so much pain in your legs, you don't actually want to go out walking to alleviate the problem because it just causes more pain. So Hopefully I have pointed you in the right direction to getting some relief. I have actually started to take Ginko Biloba because for me this sounds like a very special plant. I will be adding to the list of magical properties on another hub, because I believe it is worthy of lot more attention.
Swollen feet can be a symptom of more serious conditions, so if you are not sure what is causing your feet to swell please go and see a Doctor, as this can be a sympton of Kidney disease or Heart Problems.

I don't know about you, but sometimes I just cannot sleep however tired I am. Recently I have been helping someone move house, go out and buy furniture, and literally run from one place to another, not even...
I had no idea there are so many causes of poor circulation, Nell :-). Thanks. I love that you added the herbal medication. Cool.
I walk and do stretching exercises. I used to dance..ha ha ha..that was in a previous lifetime.
Anyway, when I was pregnant, I must have been the healthiest since I drank milk whether I wanted to or not, lol, six glasses a day, and then I walked for two miles with five pounds of extra weight on each foot all of 8 months!!.
I still do that not as often as I like, putting the extra weights on legs.
I do have one of those electronic foot massagers. They are wonderful for tired feet.
I enjoyed the hub.
Much love always,
Oh, I forgot, Nell, the fastest way to increase overall circulation is to take a bath as hot as one can stand and stay there as long as they can stand. This I do every day,
The other thing I recommend is lathering your foot with Vicks at night and putting socks on.
This you can only do when you are alone.:-D
I had heard of Vicks on the feet too but not circulation, can't remember what though, I even told my husband at the time, his memory is no better than mine but anyway he has been having the circulation problems, I will see if he will try that. I always have had strong legs and rock solid calves and have kept up with exercise for them going up on my toes a few times daily,tightens the calf, just whenever you think of it and that helped Mom with restless leg. I have one of those machines but it has the bumpy things in it and heats the water,I just cant sit still long enough for that!
I have heard the cayenne is good for so many things and I usually remember to put in homemade soup but I need to put that out in sight and use on salads and anything else I can think of. Getting ready to go make my Kale smoothie, it lasts about three days I may put a dash in it, wouldn't even know it I bet.
How have you been? Come on over some time I think I mentioned you in my last hub. I have an idea for a poem this evening, maybe get the idea formed anyway. Husband's day off and guess I should be helping and learn something about getting a site up.
It is good to know that help is available for this type of disease. I imagine that many people suffered from this malady before the cause was discovered and cures found. Thanks for the information.
This is great. Really well put together. Try this, go to a drug store and get compression knee highs that are at least 30 mmhg compression. You should feel a difference almost immediately. I see a lot of people trying to treat poor circulation with compression hose that amount to glorified tights. Better compression. They will run you close to 20 bucks if you're in the US. Try this!
Well done Nell, filled with many tips. Paprika pulls have always been a great help for me especially in the winter months, but that's a Quill thing maybe.
Hugs and Blessings
I believe that L-Arginine, alone, has lowered my blood pressure from around 140 and above to 113 for the high number. Just can't remember the lows bet they were proportionate. Everybody has an idea. Thanks Nell.
morning Nell and everyone else :D
This is a great hub with just about everything needed, you did such a great job Nell. I really can not add anything to this, all of you covered it pretty well. if any of you make smoothies you can add all that to the smoothie and use black cherry juice as your base liquid. super concoction for great circulation and good health. Love you all, have a great day! Aloha
I thought of something else, Nell, to relieve the ankle and foot pains. Epsom salt in a basin of warm water. Soak for at least 10 minutes. 3 liters of water and one half cup of Epsom salt dissolved in it.
Hey, those are some slick things! I need massagers for every part of my body it seems and thankfully I have Bob! He gives me a massage every day while I'm working which is so nice. Sitting I think is the worst thing possible for circulation and I do that way too much with my job and my 'other' job hubbing!
Great info and will have to look at some of those gadgets. Bob takes care of my neck and back but I could probably use some leg work!
I also have problems with my legs and thank you for your great help. I will try these.
What great suggestions Nell. You even had me going over to Amazon to have a closer look. I like the foot massager because it doubles as a foot rest for my computer station. Thanks!
Excellent hub, Nell.
At age 25, when pregnant with my second child and tangling with a spoiled first one, less than 2 years old and thoroughly spoiled by a family of in-laws from birth through his first six or more months so that I had to constantly carry him around or rock him in his bassinet (usually with my foot since I had many chores to do) - I delevope what the doctors described as the worst varicose veins they'd ever seen on anyone of any age. I had to lose weight during the last several months of the pregnancy to relieve some of the problem, had to put on heavy medical elastic support stockings before I got out of bed (held up by suspenders over my very pregnant body!) and had to sit to do my work, including cooking, washing dishes, ironing, etc. - and tending to the spoiled baby.
Immediately after delivering my daughter, I was given the then-treatment for the veins - stripping, a process by which they made incisions in my groin (where there were seriously hanging veins) and in my ankles, inserted a hooked probe through the veins, latched on to the severed ends at the ankles and pulled them out wrong-side out - both legs. Then they had to make 35 incisions on my right foot to get the small ones there. The veins they pulled out told the story. The "valves" inside veins which slope up so that as the blood rises to go back to the heart to be reoxidized - will "close" to hold it as far as that valve and so on - were all floppy - when the blood passed by them - or tried to - it didn't stay that far so that it could proceed on to the next one, but lingered - to gather and swell the veins and perhaps eventually to move on by sheer volume collected. I didn't see the veins but my ex-husband did. He described them as looking like pieces of wet spaghetti with floppy pieces hanging from them.
I went on to care for my children and, in fact, it was right then when he decided not to stay in the Air Force but to return to school in his bailiwick to try to become a doctor. He even had to take a remedial English course to get into college. So I had to go to work in addition to my other full-time job of caring for my home and family (he believed it was all women's work & wouldn't even pour himself a cup of coffee during the entire 18 years of the marriage - in fact it was my finally telling him to pour it himself the day before the 'END' which percipitated the end), nursing my new baby, helping him study, looking nice as he expected me to & generally stretching my endurance almost beyond endurance. I didn't drive, I might add - only learned to @ age 40 after the marriage finally blew up.
I'd always eaten right, was never overweight, and the only explanation other than the added pressure of carrying around the first baby while carrying the second was that I inherited the tendency - and not from my mother - but from my father! My father, brother & I were the only ones in my natal family, including Mother and two sisters - who ever had the vein problem.
Anyway - that treatment of veins is not as effective as the newer treatments with lasers, I understand. But I wore support hose for years, stayed active (aerobic exercise is excellent for many things), along with good diet and the natural foods & herbs you mention, which I use except for the ginko, which I may try now! I also began to wear better supporting shoes for everyday activities (it was before today's athletic shoes were around so I wore nurses' shoes!) In my teens I wore ballet shoes a lot and other non-supportive kinds which surely didn't help & my work demanded high heels.
But I've been able to almost recover from it by intelligent compensating & choices, so that 53 years later, I can boastg thqt I'm quite fit & fine, and take no meds but premarin and my only complaint is chronic numbness in my feet - still a symptom of poor circulation, probably because I'm sitting at the computer too much - LOL. I take B vitamins for it because it's partly neurological, said my doctor when he recommended them.
For me, staying slim has always been a health essential. And, contrary to what the doctors who did the operation said, - I've been able to wear a bathing suit successfully & look just fine in bikini panties, even now. ;-) Also I intend to continue doing so for another 20 or 30 years!
Now - if I can just find me one of those Circulation Boosters like the one in the illustration of the gal using it - and get onto the Ginko - I'll be all set!
Thanks, Nell. This is truly a good article you've published. I rated it up and useful!!
A nice foot rub'll make it all feel much better !!!
Interesting Hub on poor circulation and swollen ankles, Nell. And there is nothing better than a nice relaxing foot spa!
Is Buergers disease the same as varicose veins? I haven't heard about this before and its description in this hub seemed like they're same.
Sorry about your swollen feet, I guess it happens to a lot of people. You've made a great hub out of it anyway. Thanks for this information. :)
Thank you Neil Rose, this is one that I have, but with Yoga, it is helping!
Wow, I think I have all forms of this. The swelling goes down almost instantly (within 20-30 minutes) when I raise my feet and usually doesn't swell until the evening time after all day of activity. It can become painful. I attribute it to my constant mental lapses that I am in my 50's and not 20's. Don't tell my brain that (but my body sure feels is) or I will become a couch bum before I know it. Nice to see that your brain works like mine, yes we can, yes we can do it. The body is no we can', no we can't..
Thanks Nell, they are fine now. Actually it was a not as bad as I thought but I have been very busy lately with sicknesses in the family and so on. Things are starting to settle down a little now. Don't know for how long though but I do need a break.. Funny you saif you were falling to pieces, my doctor recently made that same comment to me " You are falling apart on me, but I will put Humptey Dumpty back together again! I looked at him and said, thanks Doc, I come to you for encouragement and I feel like a jig saw puzzle.
Good information. I learn much from you. I found some terrible disease like you mention above. And it will getting worst without good medication. I hope we always healthy. Vote this up.
My restless legs are bothering me, poor circulation, chronic pain. I rub polar bear and wear socks at night. It helps. At day time I do brisk walking, 1,000 quick steps make me satisfied. But that's less than the 30 minute minimum of foot exercise I must do daily. I'll consider your herbal alternates like Ginko bilova. Thank you,Nell.
Great Job. It is really nice to have all that valuable information in one place!
Hello and great job by the writer and all contributors!! I am only 28 and already suffer from quite large veins in my calfs (despite being a healthy eater and active person) and one thing idea I would add that I practice daily is inversion:
-putting both legs and feet up a wall
-doing yoga poses such as shoulder stand
Ten minutes of this a day makes a big difference in my world :)
I will also try the GIngko and appreciate the article!
Thanks so much Nell Rose for this piece. One of my late husbands health problems was Hypertension.
I never fully understood what is was about until now, your description was clear and concise. Thank you so much for this informative hub, voted up, marked useful, shared and bookmarked.
Thanks for a good informative Hub Nell.I'm only 35 but from 1.6 million miles sitting in the seat of a semi truck I already suffer from this condition chronically. I have found that sleeping with my feet elevated seems to keep the major swelling from occurring.
There are some serious causes of foot swelling that should be looked into by your doctor before you decide you have poor circulation. Blood and urine tests will make sure swelling is not caused by dysfunction of your kidneys or liver. A chest X-ray will make sure swelling is not due to heart failure.
Recently my sister had foot swelling. I told her to get checked, but that it was probably nothing to worry about. She turned out to have kidney failure and is on dialysis, awaiting a kidney transplant. A dose of Motrin killed her kidneys.
Good job Nell, I think you've just helped a lot of people who read this hub. I found it very useful.
good job
Hi Nell, i'm new here on Hubs, and i just want to let you know that i always had sore legs and feet, i for one am going to make good use of your site. I really suffered the most when i was pregnant. I am going to take a better look at the foot massager from Amazon
A Great Hub, I have been suffering with the same problem and learned of a great cure that has helped me a lot, Drink 2 glasses of Blueberry Juice a day and in-between drink Green tea . It has turned out to help my feet a lot.
Hi Nell, great hub! I'd like to add just one thing. I've been having problems with my feet and ankles swelling and my feet going numb when I'm standing. The doctor had just recently put me on Celebrex for my arthritis and she said it could be the cause of my swelling. Her suggestions were raising my feet every two to three hours and wearing the support stockings. I love how the stockings make my legs feel for the first hour or two, but they slide down slightly and that causes them to get too tight around my ankles so I can't wear them for a long time.
Foot Swelling may also occur due to increase of S. Creatinine of blood causing kidney problems and due increase of S. Ige of blood causing allergy or oedema. Patients of these type of health problems may avail good treatment through homeopathy with out side effects.
Dr. M. Ahmed
I had always though my feet problems were from too much pressure on my feet, or from standing too much. Turns out it was circulation! Thanks so much for this, I've been feeling better because of this hub.
Recently, I began awakening with sore feet. I have begun to rub a gel infused with "arnaka" - a holistic approach. This herb is fantastic in the prevention and treatment of swelling, pain, and bruising. Just thought I'd share. I will try to incorporate more of your mentioned herbs in my diet. Again, another great hub!
Hello, I'm new to hub pages,thought your article was great. But a little concerning, if your still having these problems,please consider having your sugar levels tested. Four members of my family are diabetic and they all have these problems with there legs and feet!
Hi, I'm new to HubPages and I've just read you Hub on swelling legs. My wife has a huge problem with her swelling legs. She has even the doctors comfounded. Her legs are black and swollen, for the last ten years. They have passed her through two Dopplers, one for veins and one for arteries and circulation is good in her legs. Being diabetic doesn't help the cause. But a couple of your suggestions might.Beginning with Ginko Biloba, now to find a way to convince her to try it.I will be following you and let you know if it helps.
As a paramedic, i see swollen feet everyday. Lasix is always prescribed for it, however i believe rehab is the most effective way to treat. You have to get up and use your feet. People that are in wheelchairs, bed bound, or not active seem to get it the most. If more people with swollen feet would get up more and use them, more blood would flow through giving more circulation.
Good article great points
This is a common problem face by many people. Thanks for writing a wonderful hub with useful information.
Thank you, I suffer from small veins thanks to genetics add on top of that a car accident that damaged both legs. I am always looking for ways to keep the sweeling down. vitamin B12, leg elevation, Granny Panty hose from yuck land that are 30/40 compression, Now on Tuesday I am having to go visit the hospital for an Imblasion (sp) where they cut off a shallow vein due to the issues that it has caused. So as you can see I am always looking for ways to help the sweeling. You have given me some to try.
Hi Nell - thanks for a very informative hub! That machine up there looks like a great idea! So many people I know suffer from it - and as Nellieanna says, pregnancy is one time when a lot of women seem to have this problem.
Great article. Ginko Biloba is great. I had never heard of a circulation booster. Your articleis easy to read and understand.
I should know Ginko Biloba has great affect on foot circulation, since it help on memorizing as well (better blood circulation for brain).
Every once in, I usually do foot massage using those U comfy foot massager, very relaxing.
Great health tips. Thanks for sharing
Hi Nell,
Wow this is really informative.
I just question something though. I am an overweight person (without diabetes) and I do walk about 15 mins to and back from work. I usually feel really good and some days I do a power walk (because I'm motivated then)
I find I get swollen legs in the morning. I don't understand it but I will say this I had surgery in my more prodominant swollen leg (left) for bunionectomy (sp?) and currently still have tendinitis (heard it will take awhile before that goes away) grr. But is there anything else I could or should be doing to motivate my leg to reduce swelling at night or mornings?
Friendly advice is welcomed. If you know of good meal plan ideas for losing weight I'm totally game.(interested)
Thanks a million :)
Hi Nell, My legs swell when I sit at the computer too long. There are a lot of good tips here will try. Thanks
Wonderful article. I used to have swollen feet and noticed it got worse during the winter. I knew it had to do with poor circulation but didn't know it could be related to the heart.
"obviously if you are in your twenties and thirties it would probably have been fine. " isn't that the truth LOL!
Great article. My brother has one of those electronic feet massagers you mentioned and he loves it. He has some varicose vein issues.
I recently had swollen legs and had a hard time getting up but I attributed it to eating a couple of bags of salty potato chips and the like. It went away after a few days and I stopped the salt intake.
very well thought article and well written. Lots of helpful information. Nice how you always respond by commenting. Nice writing style also.
Very informative post! I really liked it. I never knew that herbs can actually improve circulation. It's good that they're actually are easy to find.
Thanks Nell for sharing that information oh how poor circulation can cause health related problems. I am in my late twenties but I still found the information you have shared to be very useful. Voted UP and rated USEFUL
Great info that enlighten me more to know when poor circulation is ruining anybody around me life.
Thanks good article very informative post really beautifull
Extensive information, what a wonderful hub! I have recently been dealing with one swollen ankle and blood clots etc. I am on Warfaren and not happy about this. I have had two excellent physicians and I do have a family history of blood disorders. You have covered every area and have offered solutions in such a positive manner. Great hub.
wow useful i must suggest to my friend thanks nell!!
Good information. thanks
My ankles and feet started to swell last summer, but only when there was a heat wave. When I talked to my doctor about this he told me to start wearing elastic stockings. Since they only swell in the summer I did not pay any heed to purchasing the stockings since I wear flip flops and sandals all summer. I found your article very interesting and useful as I did not realize all the problems that poor circulation can be caused from.
I have neuropathy in my feet. I have to take a medication for that.
My husband had poor circulation in his feet and legs and had to have stents put in.
When I was 37 I had swollen feet so bad that when I went on a trip with friends I could barely walk. Doctor said here take these water pills never looked for why my feet were swollen. When I had a heart attack a year later they knew then why I had swollen feet. To bad they thought I was young and stupid and wouldn't listen to me. They could have saved me from having the heart attack.
Great Hub.
i am 25 years old and i am getting to much swelling in my whole body, just becoz of swelling i am looking fat also, kindly tell me something so that i may look better
This is great info Nell and well worth a vote up. I have bad pains in my feet and they remain swollen. I have had all kinds of issues with them for as long as I can remember. Im just 28, but I have broke them multiple times because of football, ankles that is. They constantly hurt, but no insurance, no dr visit. :(
Will try this tonight. Any relief would be worth it. Sure do appreciate the advice Nell. Great hub that is well written. Take care dear.
This is my first time here , but very informative and I am definitely going to try this . Thank you very much .
I work from home and as a result do not get much exercise. I'm starting to notice this is becoming a problem. Thanks for the helpful information! Hope that the Ginko works for you.
Hi, Nell--
Very well-done article. I must say, you did your research! My husband is a heart patient who underwent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery back in 2001 (they did a QUINTUPLE bypass at that time!!) But, he now has quite severe foot/ankle/leg problems just in the left leg--which is the leg from which they 'stole' the veins to repair the heart.
Unfortunately, that resulted in very poor circulation to that leg and foot, and not much can be done about it. In fact, it caused his already flat feet to totally collapse on that side, and he is in near constant pain. Elastic support socks do help, but they are no substitute for not having such a problem in the first place. :-(
He cannot take herbals, particularly the Ginko, because of potential drug interactions with the medications for his heart.
So, before taking anything, you should consult with your doctor....(not that many of them know much about holistic/herbal/alternative remedies--they are too busy pocketing kickbacks from the major drug companies!)
Voted up, interesting and useful!
I always used to get swollen feet when on a plane. To stop it happening I take my shoes off and do ankle circling, walk about on long flights as much as possible and put my feet up when I can. Massaging the feet and ankles also helps.
I intended to post you to thank you for these spectacular methods
you've provided on this website.
I thought I'd share this with you.If you're interested, check out my link.
It's 100% free and I guarantee it's worth your time. Thanks!
treat gout naturally
All are interesting comments.
Most of it is manageable. I also experience swollen feet about 2 years ago. Since then I have managed the problem. This is what I do.
Take a blood thinner (Cartia) at least 5 days before I start travelling. Continue to take it while travelling and 5 days after arriving home. The day before and even the day you get on the plane for a long flight just do some exercised (cycling or jogging works for me). If the hotels have a gym I use it otherwise I take a small stretch machine with me. Take of my shoes as soon as I settle down on my flight. I have just done a European trip from Sydney via Kuala Lumpur and Colombo. No problems other than a mild cold. Investing time and effort on good food and exercise brings a very high return. It's worth it.
hi im sizwe , a student at U.C.T and i would like to ask how does your feel after driving a car with your normal shoes on because my feet get painful and swollen ,sometimes i get blister
Im worried about my wife,she is 33,she has been having swelling in her lower leggs,ankles and feet,also she has been in pain all over her body for the last two days and has been very restless and says she feels like she is having a panic attack.We have been married for 12yrs and she never complains about anything ever,she had cervical cancer removed 11yrs ago,she hasn't been to a doctor since,any ideas what could be wrong,she is very scared and this is very unlike her,I am also very stressed over this1 thank you for any advice!
Vicks is good for coughs. Put it on ur feet and put socks on at night.
Im so out of shape im 27 and my legs always hurt...im making an appoiment with dr because om scared...I loved every single word u put out here.. I notice I havericose gains that could be the reason ... thanks
This was more helpful and realistic than MANY articles I've read about the subject of swelling.
A word from the wise - don't do too much research on the internet about this. Just go see a doctor... Yes, exercise helps a good bit... but self-diagnosis can be terrifying, especially when the internet tells you that you probably have congestive heart failure or liver cirrhosis. Terrifying.
I ended up in the emergency room recently, thinking I was going to literally die... turns out I just have high blood salt - which isn't fantastic, but it is at least mostly reversible.
I've been having swelling over my entire body, and I'm only 25 years old... but I'm a software student... so I don't have a lot of time to walk or cook healthy meals. Gonna have to find the time, though. Software does you no good if you're dead!
Hi there one of my foot has been swelln for some yrs nw what can I do its hard for me to wear certain shoes nd im a teenager
How much Ginkgo Biloba a day to take. Also, what about taking magnesium for feet and leg swelling?
Once when traveling by bus for a long period of time, many people on the bus trip could not even put their shoes back on. Their feet got swollen and my feet was swollen too. I don't know if it was because we were on a bus for so long.
Thankyou so much Nell for providing this valued information......bcoz of the duration of my office work that's 8 hrs long....and sitting continuously for the nature of my job, sometimes i get my feet & ankle swelled up, that is very inconvenient....though i go with leg massage & yoga way but its a time taking phenomina and of my busy schedules i cant afford much time for it..... hope your hub will help me in getting rid of the problem more effectively in a better way ! .....God Bless You!
Nell - I've read your hub and all the comments and I have to say you have helped so many people! What a terrific lady you are. I'm so blessed to know you through hubpages.
My poor feet! God bless them. I have neuropathy (I think) - at least I was diagnosed with it from a foot specialist. However my internest declares that I don't because it seems that its diabetes related. Whatever - I've been in pain for years. Nothing - and I do mean nothing gives me relief except for non-steroidal rx and I hate taking meds. So, I shall try ginko biloba and see if it helps. In any case, this is a magnificent hub and I thank you dear Nell. Sharing on FB etc.
Will share this with my Grandma, Nell, she thanks you for writing this! She's suffered from varicose veins for many years. Thanks for the write, voted up!
This is a great hub. Its also helpful to take extra vitamin C for your inflammation - this is from both personal experience and research. Take ester vitamin C with bioflavinoids. Good luck!
You wrote a great Hub that will benefit people with poor circulation. I have never been bothered by this, thank goodness. I think kidney problems will cause the feet to swell, too, Nell.
I voted this Hub UP, etc.etc.
Hi Nell. Your hub gives a lot of great pointers for people with foot and ankle issues.
My late father was diabetic. Toward the end of his long life, he lost all sensation in his feet, because of clogged blood vessels, which is a fairly common complication of diabetes.
The complications arise because Type 2 diabetics experience a paradoxical situation, in which they have too little insulin and too much insulin in their systems at the same time. How so?
Type 2 diabetes stems from low insulin receptor sensitivity. The daily insulin injections are sufficient for them to regulate blood sugar, and to keep them alive from day to day. But the injections cause the insulin concentration to be much higher than in non-diabetics. And this is what causes the various complications.
Anything that one can do to boost insulin receptor sensitivity should be helpful for quality of life. The best-known way to accomplish this is to do as much aerobic exercise as possible every day, while fine-tuning the insulin dosage. My father monitored his blood sugar very carefully, and titrated his insulin injections.
Although my father never got serious about exercise, he did take supplements, including vanadyl sulfate. This decreased his insulin requirements by about half. Seafood is a good natural source of vanadium, but the quantity in a typical serving is much less than in the supplements.
Voted up and more.
This is a very informative hub. I have not yet experienced (I hope not) swelling feet and legs but I my legs cramps sometimes. I´m taking since then magnesium and eating bananas everyday. It helps. Thanks for sharing this hub. I´ll pass it on to my sister who is suffering from swollen feet and legs. Voted up and SHARED.
We helpful to receive at the top of life nevertheless recently I've piled up any weight.
Dave has edema is his feet due to his latest treatment. It seems to be getting better with diuretics and potassium pills. He also keeps his legs elevated when possible. Thanks for sharing the additional tips Nell.
Forwarding this to my mother in law, who has the same problem.This should help her! Thanks for sharing, Nell!
Plused and Tweeted!
Great hub! I have a friend who is a quadriplegic and he is interested in stimulating blood flow in his lower extremities. Although I like all ideas presented, the compression leg massager, in particular, is the perfect gift. Since his birthday is around the corner I saved your Hub and will visit you again soon. ; ) ~ Thanks.
My mother sometimes gets swollen feet whenever she flies. That foot spa you featured looks really nice.
I didn't know swollen feet are caused by poor circulation, thanks to this hub. Also, I have always encountered Ginkgo Biloba but didn't know what it is for. :)
Thanks for a nice informational hub. :)
I have got to increase my circulation. Since August I've been in a wheelchair-- not because of my legs, but because of my lungs due to sarcoidosis. So basically I can't walk more than a block or two without getting low oxygen, arrhythmia, etc. So the wheel chair is all well & good for my lungs, but my legs are like longing to be used and I can't even exercise heavy because I get out of breath too quickly. I'm totally gaining weight, it sucks. I try to do a lot of stretching and yoga throughout the day on and off, and I move around the house ever hour or two just to get up and move. Now I'm thinking of investing in a circulation machine, maybe it'd help.
Nell Rose, Great informative hub on "swollen feet." No doubt it is important to seek a resolution to encourage healthy ciculation! Thank You for sharing, Joy, Peace & Blessings!

Construction on Roswell Road (end of October) makes access somewhat difficult. Hotel is a bit dated but it is clean. Front desk staff was pleasant and helpful, bed was comfortable, bathroom clean. We thought our room key had not been programmed, turned out a staff member comes up and shows you how to wiggle the card to make it work. Nice small pool area with patio furniture. Parking lot is not large enough for number of rooms... you can park "down the hill" where it is dark or spill over into the restaurant lot next door. Inexpensive rate in Atlanta area if you're on a budget and looking for a bed for the night. The actual rating should be between average and poor.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My husband and I have been married for 3 years, been living together for 5, with 3 children who are 4, 2 and 8 months. I have been a stay at home mom, where ,my husband has been the sole provider for our family. He has never added me to his checking account or given me any way to pay for anything. The problem: I was added to two of his credit cards and he knew i was using them to by household needs, but there are many more cards that i opened in both of our names with his income. He claims he never knew about them but he did know that i was using them...he just did not know the extent. I can prove he knew because i was paying the payment on the card from his checking account online. So now all cards and balances have came out in the open because he has been sued since we could not afford to pay on all of them, he now wants to charge me with fraud and in addition to the credit cards, he also wants to add on all the checks that i had signed his name on for the past 4 years, that he had given me permission to sign. 98% being spent or written for food for our household at grocrey store or for bills. I will say that i did use the credit cards more than he thought we were and i did open 3 cards with out his knowledge. What can i do or what can he do with charging me with fraud in Oregon, or how can i claim this debt to be mine...or what? Will this even stand considering i had no way to purchase household means for our family? In addition i have no history of any criminal activity. We are around $60,000 in debt, own our house that has very little equity and are financing one car that has 0 equity.
Although I am not an Oregon practitioner of the criminal law of that state, I see no basis for any criminal nor even civil charges (including fraud) based upon the scenario which you've described.Ask a similar question
Note that I am not licensed to practice in your state.
I agree that according to your description, he has no case for fraud. However, that does not mean he cannot still file a police report for identity theft and fraud and make your life a living hell.
I think it might be time to speak with a divorce attorney.Ask a similar question
Yes, sadly, I have to agree about a divorce attorney this is very wron
You and your children deserve to be treated with love understanding not harsh and hurtfull words life is to short and your children are very precious don't let anyone take away your most precious gift and joy....... I'll keep you in my prays always and GOD WILL WATCH OVER YOU ,",Just have faith believe and see "......
suffering same thing, false fraud claims by husband. after I used the cards for 4 years, he now claims fraud only after I filed restraining order due to his threatening my life and my child's.
I do not practice in your state and am not licensed to do so.
I must respectfully disagree with the other attorneys that have responded. If you signed his name to any of the credit card applications, and supplied his personal information without his consent in applying for the cards, you can be held criminally liable for identity theft and fraud under federal statute, and most likely under your state's statutes. Where you admit to opening three accounts without his knowledge, you have a problem. Further, if he were to divorce you, it is likely he would argue, and possibly win, that you did not incur that debt for the benefit of the marriage (thus not marital debt but your sole debt) or that you wasted marital assets through your spending without his permission and through purposeful concealment.
Unless you have a signed (and in many places, recorded) general durable power of attorney, you do not have authority to sign your husband's name to anything, especially something that would create a legal liability for him.
Folks, honesty is still the best policy. Even if you think your spouse "knows" about your use of credit, if you know you are spending money they don't know about and won't approve of, don't be surprised or get mad at them when they catch you and are not exactly happy about it. Take the extra time to get your spouse to sign -- do not sign for them. Same with taxes, bank accounts, etc.Ask a similar question
Hi Reading this really upsets me, I'm going through much of the same and it's hurtful to hear this young girl/ mother of 3 children/ babies be criticized for wrongful doing when her husband gave her permission, not knowing what the cost of living is and if something was bought that was out of the ordinary he would have noticed, second I believe in my heart as a mother of 5 and grandmother of 4, I am fully aware of what it cost to feed 2 adults and most important shoes # 1 for children , clothing I can keep going,(? Was super on the table? Was his clothes washed was his children clean and well clothed and feed?) if this is all a yes , where did his wife fit in? What are your WEDDING VOWS? YOU BECOME ONE UNDER GODS LAW WHERE IS THAT??? I did not see that as I read, help me out with that one PLEASE.....all these LAWS AND THE MOST IMPOTANT ONE IS FORGOTTEN......!!! WHY? I get upset when I see this kind of threat and that's exactly what it is..... This young women is: tending to her husband, then the children, household, ? Who is taking care of her? She's a criminal??? PLEASE, RE THINK THIS..... START WITH THE WEDDING VOWS WERE IN ANY RELIGION, THE2 BECOME ONE AND TAKE IT FROM THERE.... I have a book I've started , it's called,"DARK HIDDEN SECRETS", I can't fining it fast enough and when I see this .... Im so ripped apart , " you say this is a criminal? NO!!! I CALL IT A THREAT....!!!! This is It's Beautiful young wife and mother with a,"BEAUTIFUL HEART AND LOVE FOR HER FAMIL"!!!I'm out of time although I will come back to this...

October 4 - 2013
This is not an entry for a class. This is a brief reminder of strategies that student's learned last year about how to effectively use a study hour at home....
Learning is not about checking the box that says "done".
Learning is not about submitting something on time.
Grades are often heavily influenced by the above two things, but grades are not always evidence of learning. (In a perfect world they would be, but we rarely find ourselves in that perfect world.) Learning is the result of many different factors. Some of the most important factors include, but are not limited to: risk taking, persistence, creativity, practice, and a willingness to be gloriously wrong .
On a practical level, try to avoid limiting your thoughts after school to, "Do I have any HW?" There is nothing wrong with the question, but it is a very limiting question. Instead consider modifying your behavior to, "How am I going to study tonight?" This question implies that there is always something new to learn at a deeper level for an hour. Ideas to consider but not limit yourself to...
1) Complete HW due the next day. Ask yourself, "Is this work I am proud of?"
2) Make progress on projects due farther into the future.
3) Correct graded work.
4) Summarize content learned. Create notes. Annotate existing notes.
5) Rewrite, improve, edit, extend writing assignments.
6) Preview content that is coming. Read ahead. Take notes.
7) Make study materials: create flash cards, make charts, create memory devices to actively prepare for the next test. (Active studying.) There is always a next test.
8) Write out questions about anything you don't understand.
9) Get organized: planner, binder, backpack, work space. Try breaking a large project into smaller steps.
10) Start a conversation with your parents. Tell them about what you are learning. Try not to limit the conversation to "What I have to do."

What started as an idea early Monday with an unidentified Padres player became a salute to the military at Petco Park.
Hours after a Navy SEALs team carried out the elimination of Osama Bin Laden, a Padres player called the front office Monday morning to see if it were possible for the team to wear its camouflage jerseys for that night's game against the Pirates at Petco Park.
The "camos" are usually reserved for Sunday afternoon games at Petco Park -- when the Padres regularly honor San Diego's large military population.
"I'm not sure where it started," manager Bud Black said before the Padres' 4-3 loss to the Pirates. "Chase (Headley) was one of the first. The idea gained a lot of support in a short period of time."
Heath Bell, the son of a former Marine, said, "Who knows who was first. A lot of called, a good percentage of the team. As soon as word got out, a lot of guys were calling to say it was a good idea."
"Who ever thought of the idea is quite the patriot," said Ryan Ludwick, whose father was an Air Force colonel. "It's been 10 years. (Sunday) night was an emotional deal for the nation."
Shortly after decision was made to wear the camouflage jerseys, the Padres decided to offer free tickets to all active and retired military with valid identification cards. Almost 2,800 accepted the last-minute invitation.
Before the start of the game, the Padres paid tribute to servicemen. The ceremonies included a moment of silence for all those who had given their life in defense of the country.

The battle of Trafalgar was arguably the most decisive victory in the long history of war at sea. Undaunted by the fact that he had only twenty-seven ships-of-the-line compared to the thirty-three in the combined Franco-Spanish fleet, Lord Nelson finally brought the enemy to action on 21st October 1805 in a ferocious battle lasting less than three hours. The enemy fleet was shattered by the loss or capture of eighteen of its capital ships and its casualties numbered over 6,000 men killed or wounded, although the glorious victory was overshadowed by the death of Nelson himself, struck down by a sniper's bullet. As night fell on the fateful day and the battered fleets drew apart, a violent storm blew up just as both sides attempted to make temporary repairs for their homeward journeys. The British made for Gibraltar with their captured prizes, whilst the remnants of the Franco-Spanish fleet made for Cadiz and limped into port with practically every one of their number severely damaged. Several of the eleven survivors had been wholly dismasted and the inhabitants of Cadiz, especially those men employed in the great dockyard, declared that such a motley collection of jury rigs was unprecedented in their experience. Although a few of the ships were eventually repaired, none ever returned to sea thanks to the ruthless effectiveness of the Royal Navy's post-Trafalgar blockade.
The armed cutter Entreprenante was built in France and operated as a privateer until 1799 when she was captured and assimilated into the British Royal Navy under her original name. Measured at 123 tons, she was 67 feet in length with a 22 foot beam and mounted 10-4pounder guns. Her first recorded action under British colors was off the Egyptian coast in 1801 where she assisted in the expulsion of the French Army of Occupation from that country. By 1805, she was under the command of Lieutenant Robert Young and had been re-armed with 10-12pounders [in December 1803] to enhance her status as a ship-of-war even though she was far too small to engage an enemy ship-of-the-line. Accompanying Nelson's fleet during the run-up to Trafalgar, her speed and maneuverability ensured she was kept busy carrying orders and dispatches between the ships and stations, and although she was not actually in action during the battle itself, she nevertheless picked up the survivors of the French '74' Achille when she blew up. After the battle, as evidenced by this painting, she was then ordered to shadow the remnants of the enemy fleet in order to ensure that it made port and therefore proved no further threat.
Entreprenante's next major encounter with the enemy took place in December 1810 when, whilst cruising off the Spanish Costa del Sol, she was attacked by four well-armed French privateer galleys. Surviving a furious fight lasting three hours in an otherwise flat calm, she saw off her attackers and left them all badly damaged. Severely damaged herself, she made it home to England only to be broken up in 1812.
Another version of Buttersworth's depiction of the defeated Franco-Spanish fleet running into Cadiz after Trafalgar, in which the backdrop is almost identical to the work in this catalogue, was offered in Christie's [London] Maritime Sale, 6th November 1997 (lot 577).

Nice poem. But 'kapkapi' sounds a bit feverish. What you mean is perhaps - sensation, but 'kapkapi' means shivering/trembling in pain or fear. How about -'badan ki sansanaahat'or 'thirkan'? (Report) Reply

British Sea PowerLabel: Rough Trade
Release Date: 02 December 2013
Format: LP Double Vinyl
|British Sea Power From The Sea To The Land Beyond Limited Vinyl 2LP + DVD Set
· British Sea Powers widely-praised soundtrack for the film From The Sea To The Land Beyond is to be released on CD and double vinyl (plus digital download coupon) accompanied by a DVD copy of the film through Rough Trade Records.
· The album features a bonus track not available on the original soundtrack.
· The soundtrack consists of re-workings of previous British Sea Power songs and was recorded in Brighton and mixed by Ken Thomas (Sigur Ros, Daughter, M83, Cocteau Twins, Moby).
· In January 2013 when the film, directed by Penny Woolcock,
was first shown on BBC4 as part of the Storyville series the viewing figure nudged 500,000 - over twice the usual audience size.
· The film features a fantastic array of footage of the British coastline from the BFIs National Archive. Travelling from 1901, through both World Wars, into peacetime and the modern age, From The Sea To The Land Beyond shows our coast as a place of leisure, industry and wild nature: A woman scaling a sheer cliff face to collect eggs, dancers on the Sussex shoreline, émigrés from the Caribbean and India, a big British Rail hovercraft... For all this, the British Sea Power soundtrack is a fitting, moving audio counterpart.
· To celebrate this release, British Sea Power will be staging a unique performance of the soundtrack in full beneath Londons Cutty Sark clipper ship. Ticket buyers will be able to tour the ship one hour before the performance begins and will also have access to William Turners new exhibition Turner At Sea - a full scale examination of the painters fascination with the sea - at the National Maritime Museum.
