Living way solutions
Practice in perspiration
Practice forms good for heart cause water
amount in the body to reduce due to stimulating the circulation to work
continuously will help fluid move from the most distant point to heart and
kidney where it is changed into urine through urine tract. It also helps you
perspire, excrete water and soldium. You do not need to practice all forms, but
just a fast walk is sufficiently effective.
Soak body in water
Expectant mothers know clearly that soaking
body in water is an effective way to relieve fluid retention in the body. The
principle is that water pressure will push the fluid back to blood vessels and
kidney. Besides, doing aerobic in water will bring double effect.
Massage body
Massage, especially massage good for lymph,
will relieve bloating since it helps the fluid run steadily to organs in the
body – according to Elson M.Hass, the manager of Marin University of Medicine
and Pharmacy, author of the book named The Detox Diet, 3rd Edition.
Loose body
Raising your swollen foot and foot ankle
higher than the position of heart will help the fluid turn back to kidney
better. Do not sit in cross-legged posture since it will prevent fluid’s
circulation at the bottom part of the body. Similarly, wearing too tight jeans
will cause the same effect.
Additional approaches
Acupuncture method
Acupuncture does not make water in the body
flow out, but it can support quite much for this process. ‘Acupuncture can make
body regulate fluid more easily,’ says Cohen. Some useful herbal methods,
together with acupuncture, will help your body get the balance back.
Homeopathy method
If you get water retention in premenstrual
time, the best way is using homeopathy method to cure PMS – according to Tori
Hudson, natural therapy doctor, pharmacist of Portland Women’s Health Clinic Institute,
author of the book called Women’s Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine. Therapies
that need using include Lycopodium, nutmeg, pulsatilla, cuttlefish, Natrum
muriaticum, lachesis, caulophylumm, và cimicifuga. Besides, Boiron is also an
effective compound to avoid bloating.
Adjust additional substances
Balance between available minerals such as
sodium and potassium or calcium and magnesium play essential parts in
preventing bloating. If you are not sure whether you absorb enough these
minerals from meals, consult a doctor about medicines supplementing good
multi-vitamin and minerals, or supplementing calcium. Studies prove that
magnesium (which have in peanut, bean, seed, cereal, and some vegetables) can
prevent premenstrual bloating, and vitamin B6 will be a very good diuretic
substance – Kimball shares – unpolished rice and red meat are sources good for
vitamin B6.
If the above foods do not help you feel
better, your doctor needs to make a prescription of a light diuretic dose;
otherwise, you need a more thorough treatment regime. ‘We do not encourage
patients to take part in long-term diuretic treatment since it may bring many
negative responses such as reducing potassium concentration, increasing blood
pressure, creating pressure for heart and opposite response of fluid retention.
Call a doctor in urgent cases
Some effects of medicines for curing heart,
kidney, or liver disease, thyroid land or diabetes can cause serious fluid
retention and chronic bloating. So, be careful while using specialized medicines
including nonsteroidal anti-inflamation (NSAIDs) or blood pressure raise
medicine, steroid, joint supporting medicine (such as glucosamine), diabetic
medicine, and anti-seizure. If you press your finger on the swollen position
and your skin is resilient in more than 1 minute, you are at urgent case, so
call a doctor right away and ask for consultancy.
