Fitness trainer Anita Lutsenko named 7 simple reasons that provoke edema: when to see a doctor

Anita Lutsenko, a well-known Ukrainian fitness trainer, spoke about the causes of edema that you might not have realized. The expert also named cases when you should see a doctor.

It is the specialist who will help to overcome this problem by treating the kidneys directly, and not by abusing pills. "That is, if you realize that you have abnormal edema, then see a doctor," Lutsenko wrote on her Instagram page. What causes edema?

Shackling

This is the name for muscle "inflammation" that causes swelling. As a result, this condition can last for several days. "There may be weight gain plus increased volume," the influencer wrote. In this case, you should just wait.

Salt

Foods high in salt, such as pickles, herring, and fast food, can cause swelling. Lutsenko explains that it's also worth waiting it out.

Menstruation

"Menstruation, swelling during this period is also normal. Wait," the post says.

Sedentary lifestyle

Physical activity will be the solution to this problem. In particular, try to walk 7-10 thousand steps a day, get up and do some warm-ups. Also, try adding a 10-minute walk every morning.

Varicose veins

"Varicose veins are heavy legs. Go to a phlebologist and solve the problem," the expert recommends.

Too much or too little water

In this case, you should adjust the amount of water you drink every day. "Focus on urine. It should be neither clear nor dark yellow. Solving these issues with diuretics is not rational," Lutsenko emphasized.

Carbohydrate-free diets

When you eat carbohydrates after such a diet, it can lead to a feeling of being "flooded".
