Are you experiencing feeling extremely cold and having swollen legs with fibromyalgia?
While the search results don't specifically address cold sensations and leg swelling together, these are symptoms that some people with fibromyalgia do experience. Temperature regulation issues are common with fibromyalgia, and many members report feeling either too hot or too cold.
Swelling in the legs can occur with fibromyalgia, though it's important to have this checked by your doctor to rule out other causes like circulation issues or medication side effects.
Some things that might help include:
- Wearing compression socks for swelling
- Keeping legs elevated when resting
- Staying warm with layers and heating pads
- Gentle movement to improve circulation
It's worth discussing both symptoms with your healthcare provider to make sure there isn't another underlying issue that needs attention and to explore treatment options that might help.

I used to get real bad leg, ankle and feet swelling, but now that I'm exercising almost daily I just get a little swelling in my ankles and feet.
