  1. Find a comfortable place to sit and raise your feet by putting a pillow under them. They swell due to fluid retention.


  2. u might have sunburn!  

  3. Go to the doctor. Swollen feet and hands are a serious sign of something bad. Sorry I cant remember the name of it... I think it may be Edema?? Its not good..  

  4. Can you soak them? Body Shoppe has some good peppermint foot soaks.  But, even plain epsom salts in warm water should help.  I'd try soaking them, then putting them up.  Elevating them should help, too.  

  5. elevate them you probably have edema
