Ever notice your ankles or legs feel puffier after a long, hot day? βοΈπ§
Heat causes blood vessels to widen, which can allow more fluid to collect in the lower legs and feet. It can happen at any age, although heat-related swelling may become more noticeable as we get older.
Gentle movement can help keep fluid moving instead of pooling. A light bounce, walking, ankle movement, or simply putting your legs up can all be helpful ways to get things moving again. πΏ
