[|Human|] I have high blood pressure and am currently on medication. I suddenly had my hands and feet swell up and I can t figure out why. I have made no changes to activity or diet. I did drive for 8 hours yesterday with no real break and that s not normal for me. I noticed the swelling when I got out of the car. But it hasn t gone down or got worse. What s it from and what can I do?
[|AI|]  Dear Sir/Madam have gone through your query and read your symptoms. In my opinion, you yourself describe the cause of your swelling, patient with high BP tend to have fluid collection in the dependent parts on long sitting, which seems to be true in your case also, now what you need to do is1 Rest with limbs elevated2 Do not walk for long or sit for long, this can increase your symptoms.3 Get your BP under control by consulting a physician and following the Chat Doctor. I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
