    Hi mum2be2010

    Putting your feet up can help but I also suggest that you also exercise your feet when you put them up. Scrunch up your toes. Make big circles with your feet. Do not cross your legs/ankles when sitting. And yes drink plenty of water.

    Do you sit with one of your legs/feet tucked under you?. This is a very common cause of swelling in one foot.

    Hey Alan,

    Don't think I do and if I do (mainly in bed) it's the left foot tucked away not the right which is the swollen foot. Thanks though
