Answers: and wat to do to ease it

several stuff, heart failure, blood clot in veins, varicose veins injuries( radioactive poisonong), high intra abdominal pressure(eg. in pregnancy). Lack of exercise(bed ridden)
infection in the legs( filarial parasites wuchereria bancrufti elephantiasis).

usually bad circulation, the doctor can tell you what to do

elevate your legs above your heart. call the doctor when you get a chance. you could just be retaining water, but water retention is also caused by chronic heart failure, so please get checked.

It could be old wound or something goes wrong. You can go and see doctor.

well there are many reasons why your legs could be swollen but if you are looking to ease it try cold water thsi may bring pain but its the best course of action warming the leg may feel better but cooling it down will take the heat out of it which means the energy swelling it as well

i think you have an edema.. it is accumulation of fluids into interstitial space causing that part of the body to swell... the most common thing to relieve edema, is to apply warm compress to that part...elevate your legs when your sleeping...
but the best thing you should do is to consult a doctor for examination..

edema of the limbs can be caused by various factors, it is excess fluid accumulated in the tissues.
elevation helps
support stockings
