Although there is no quick fix to combat these problems, there are some teas that have been shown to be effective in such situations: rosehips, birch, horsetail, yellow sandalwood, ivy, thorns, ginkgo biloba, dandelion, nettle, red grapes, blueberries, grape seed extract, with the role of improving the peripheral micro circulation and with capillary-protective effect, according to www.clicksanatate.ro.
- Rosehip is one of the teas you can drink if your feet are swollen. Rosehip tea can be drunk daily, but you should not exceed two cups of tea.
- Yellow sulfine. Yellow sulfin infusion or tincture also has anti-inflammatory, diuretic and blood-thinning properties. Drink two cups of tea a day or ten drops of tincture three times a day, diluted in 50 ml of water.
- Dandelion is another miraculous plant that helps with water retention. It is not only a good diuretic, but also helps to eliminate water deposits from the tissues. It is recommended 2-3 cups of dandelion infusion per day.
- Horsetail is recommended to eat if you have swollen and painful legs. The tea is prepared as follows: a teaspoon with the tip of a ponytail is left for a minute in a cup of boiling water, then strained. The optimal daily ration is two cups of tea.
Practical advice
There are other steps you can take when your feet are swollen and sore. First of all, you should avoid standing for long periods of time, especially in the heat. On the other hand, if you do office work, take a break every hour in your chair to unwind for ten minutes. Also, when sitting on a chair, be careful not to stop your blood flow by letting the edge of the chair enter your thighs and avoid the foot-to-foot position. In addition, it is recommended to drink a glass of water every hour to prevent fluid retention. Stand, whenever the opportunity arises, with your feet raised above the level of the pelvis, to favor the venous return. Avoid wearing tight pants or socks, which prevent proper irrigation.
