Or wait or anything that requires you be on your feet for 6+ hours
Like you know how your feet feel all bruisey on the bottom after work and the pain still won’t be gone by the next morning and you have to deal w/ that pain AND the pain of the day to come
Well like my doctor told me that that bruisey feeling is cause standing on your feet all days causes fluids in your body to pool in your feet
So like at night he told me to elevate my legs with two pillows so the fluids can drain easier or w/e and ho damn.
It helps so much, Jesus Christ. No more limpy mornings.
Idk if this is even new information for y'all but just in case
I care about you
I can confirm this has changed my damn life
Reblogging to save a life.
Yeah, talk ‘bout bad advice (or poorly passed down advice)
Laying with elevated feet is alright, just don’t spend all your sleep like that, because now blood will have troubles going to your feet, and making a habit of this will cause tissue death on your toes and growing.
Oh lord we just can’t win XD
Elevate it when you get home but go back to normal when you go to bed
