It took me almost 2 weeks for swelling to go down! Make sure to elevate your legs as much as you’re able to. Obviously if you start having any numbness, pain, redness get seen asap.

My legs were swollen for about 3 weeks! I got some compression tights but I was silly and didn't elevate them

@Keeli Manninen mine are a little achy, mainly around the knees, think it’s where I haven’t really exercised much in the last week went for my first proper walk yesterday! They just feel quite heavy x

I was going to say it’s really important to move around to avoid clots, keep going for them walks girl! X

No but I was told to be active every day and wear compression socks day and night for 10 days straight. Are you moving around?

Mine took a few months to fully stop swelling! I just made sure to wear my compression socks to help ease it.
