Would you believe that I once suffered from pitting edema so badly that I could press into my ankle and leave a visible dent?
At the time, I wasn’t old. I wasn’t on medication. But something was deeply wrong — and I didn’t know it yet.
In old photos, my face looked round, almost bloated. What I didn’t realize then was that this wasn’t just a cosmetic issue. A round, puffy face can be a sign of underlying blood sugar problems. And in my case, those sugar problems were causing a host of health issues, including chronic swelling in my legs and ankles.
