Answers:

I'd say that if you weren't outside and gotten frostbitten, then you may have a case of water retention. Normally, water retentionn shows up during the day and evening as you take in water but not letting it out. If you go to bed with swollen feet or legs, with water retention, the swelling is gone in the morning. I'd probably go see a dr. but son't think it is necessary for a emergency room visit.
