Suggest Treatment For Swollen Feet And Headache During Pregnancy
Hi, I think I have understood your concern. As you said that your blood pressure is normal, swelling on your feet can be due to inadequate protein intake or just because of pregnancy. Please get serum protein test done. Include protein intake in diet. Pulses. Mil and milk products and eggs and fish are good sources of protein. I will also suggest to do ankle joint movements at regular intervals. Avoid prolonged period of standing or sitting with legs hanging down. I hope this answer helps you. Thanks Dr Purushottam Neurgaonkar
