It's very difficult for women to get pregnant. In the early stages of pregnancy, they have to face morning sickness. In the middle of pregnancy, although it feels better, they also have to face back pain, leg pain, leg cramps, and so on. Edema is very common in the later stages, especially for people who are overweight. Edema is more severe. So how to eliminate edema in the late stages of pregnancy?
In late pregnancy, if there is edema, diet can be adjusted. Throughout the pregnancy, it is necessary to control the amount of salt, eat light food, and not use too much salt. Eating diuretic foods such as winter melon and watermelon can alleviate edema in daily life. But for potatoes, sweet potatoes, and other foods that can easily cause bloating, it is best not to eat them. Severe bloating can worsen edema symptoms.
Edema in late pregnancy does not require treatment and is generally common. It will disappear after giving birth. However, we remind everyone not to stand for long periods of time, but also to avoid sitting for long periods of time. Proper exercise and more leg movement can promote blood circulation and reduce edema. Of course, foot soaking and massaging the swollen area can also promote blood circulation and alleviate the symptoms of edema.
It is best to choose loose fitting, pure cotton clothing when dressing. Because some tight fitting clothes may feel uncomfortable when applied to the body, and are also not conducive to blood circulation, reducing edema, and promoting blood circulation.
