Members shared their experiences with swollen hands and feet as symptoms of fibromyalgia, with many confirming it is a common and frustrating part of the condition. Several members pointed to humidity, high salt intake, and physical activity as triggers for swelling, and suggested drinking plenty of water as a helpful remedy. A recurring theme was that fibromyalgia affects the whole body in ways that change with the seasons, and members found comfort in being able to ask each other questions and share experiences.

Thank you everyone. I ended up going to urgent care today because it really hurt. There are 2 things that people mentioned. Yes, it’s been humid here. That might be the reason. Also, I splurged with my eating habits on the 4th of July. I will definitely keep drinking water!!! Appreciate you guys ❤️❤️❤️
