### input:
My feet and ankles are swollen to approx. 3 times normal size. They don t hurt unless I walk on them and ony mildly, but still extremely uncomfortable. This is the sixth day. I am 71 years old. I saw my doctor on May 23rd . She said it could be due to change in our weather - humid and rainy. Blood tests were taken same day...sd get results in a few days. Until I advanced to next page on site, I did not realize this would cost money. I am a senior with limited funds. I do not wish to pay any fees. Thank you.

### output:

Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. As you mentioned your history I understand that you have not met any injury. So this has to be ruled out. Now since you have a swelling of the lower limbs that is the ankle, and pain free on rest. Now to help you further, as per my understanding I am coming close to the problem - you are 71, so there is an aging process. Next, your metabolism has slowed down too. Also, your Cardiorespiratory endurance must have fallen. But one thing to understand is that during the aging process, the metabolism is at a slower rate and needs more effort to make sure that it functions well. Also, as we age Cardiorespiratory endurance slowed down, for which walking is recommended badly and some physical exercise which are individual or a group therapy.my personal practice goes well with almost 90% of my patients as geriatrics so by understanding and improving the metabolism in them helps me a lot to help them. I have all my geriatrics enjoying without pain and aches. Cardiorespiratory endurance is on the moderate level to help them ease the daily activities. They are on regular exercises will recommend you do physical therapy and perform cardio training as it is needed not to overcome the swelling issues and also for improving the metabolism.regards Jay In Chat Doctor.
