What happened to swollen legs and feet after childbirth?

There are many reasons for leg swelling, and because of postpartum leg swelling, the first consideration is that it is more related to postpartum factors. If the leg swelling is related to the postpartum period, it is considered to be caused by irregular living habits, such as staying up late after delivery, not paying attention to rest, not sitting well during the month, poor nutrition, etc. This situation can be adjusted by changing the habits of life, resting more, keeping a happy mood, enhancing nutrition, etc. If the edema does not improve by the above methods, we should consider other factors that cause edema, such as nephrogenic, cardiogenic, hepatogenic and hypothyroidism. Nephrogenic edema can appear as leg and foot edema, which is caused by impaired kidney function when there is damage to the kidneys. Cardiogenic edema is most often seen in hypoplastic right heart, which can lead to leg edema. Edema also results when the liver is damaged, and mucinous edema of the legs can occur in hypothyroidism.
