@the.lipedema.edit: I know wearing compression in hot weather sounds miserable, but for me it’s one of the biggest things that helps prevent swelling when I’m out and about. Today I made the mistake of leaving without it because I thought I’d only be at the pool for a little while. Instead, I ended up walking around for hours in nearly 100° heat. By the end of the day, my calves were so swollen my friends joked they couldn’t even find my kneecaps. 😂 When I flare like this, the things that help me most are: • electrolytes • elevating my legs • getting back into compression Does anyone else’s swelling get dramatically worse in the heat? #lipedema #lipedemalegs #compression #womenshealth

I wear compression socks in the summer you should see my tan line! 😂 Dark from knee to mid thigh pasty all the way down to my foot. It’s very comical

If you’re worried about extremity like feet or hands swelling it natural in the heat. Body’s way of cooling off
