Do you know that feeling when your legs suddenly feel heavy, swollen or even tender to the touch, especially in the evening or in the heat? Then you're one of the many women who suffer from so-called “puffy legs”. The good news: you can actively do something about it.
In this article
01
What exactly are “puffy legs”?
“Puffy legs” is the colloquial term for swollen legs caused by water retention in the tissue, especially around the lower legs, ankles and thighs. It happens when fluid leaks out of the vascular system into the surrounding tissue and is no longer carried away sufficiently.
Typical triggers:
- Summer heat and high temperatures
- Sitting or standing for long periods (e.g. at the office or when travelling)
- Hormonal fluctuations, e.g. before your period
- Not enough exercise
02
Symptoms: how to recognise water retention
- A feeling of heaviness in the legs
- Visible swelling, especially around the ankles or calves
- Marks left by socks or shoes
- A feeling of tightness or tenderness to pressure
03
Why you shouldn't ignore water retention
If water stays in the tissue for longer, it can hinder microcirculation and slow down lymph flow even further. The result: your legs don't just look swollen, they also feel tired and uncomfortable.
