Many people notice that after a long walk or a hard day, their legs become heavy and swelling appears. But a home SOS recovery scheme will quickly return the lightness to your legs. The news agency EAOMedia will tell you.
One of the most effective methods is contrast salt baths. It is enough to alternately immerse your feet in warm or cool water with regular salt for a few minutes. The method will help speed up the blood, relieve fatigue and reduce swelling.
To enhance the effect, you can make a compress from cabbage leaves. The leaves need to be lightly mashed to release the juice, and applied to the swollen areas for 20–30 minutes. Cabbage will perfectly relieve swelling and literally “draw out” all the fatigue.
Also try drinking infusions of parsley or lingonberry leaves. These herbs have a mild diuretic effect and help the body get rid of excess fluid.
Important: if swelling is severe or occurs frequently, be sure to consult your doctor. This is especially important for chronic diseases – self-medication can be dangerous.
