Edema, a problem in which parts of the body become swollen because they contain too much liquid, often occurs in the feet, ankles, legs, and hands but can affect other areas of the body too. To effectively relieve edema, it is crucial to understand its underlying causes and symptoms clearly. In this blog, we will talk about edema and how HeaWea MicroGen can help soothe it.
Causes of Edema
Edema can happen to anyone, but it most often affects pregnant people or adults over 65 years old. Several conditions or factors may cause edema, for example:
- pregnancy
- sitting or standing for too long
- side effects from certain medications
- poor nutrition
- immune system problems
- congestive heart failure
- kidney or thyroid diseases
- venous insufficiency
- cirrhosis of the liver
Edema is very common because many causes are associated with it.
Symptoms of Edema
Depending on the underlying causes, symptoms of edema will be different, including:
- swelling
- tightness
- pain
- stretched and shiny skin
- weight gain or weight loss
- puffiness of the ankles, face, or eyes
- coughing or trouble breathing
- difficulty walking
- mild pain or a sore feeling
You can test how much fluid is in your tissues by pressing the finger into the swollen area.
Methods to Reduce Swelling
In addition to alleviating the underlying issues that lead to edema, you can also take the following steps to prevent or relieve the symptoms:
- avoid sitting or standing for too long
- use less salt in your diet
- wear support socks, sleeves, or stockings
- elevate your legs when lying down or sitting
