painful edema, currently 34 weeks

Has any of you experienced edema where it's painful when massaged or pressed into? Mostly having it on my feet. And was prescribed Frusemide to help with it... Still considering if I should take it as it's a drug for cardiovascular diseases. Thanks in advance!

Frusemide actually works on the kidneys to increase water excretion. It’s given for multiple medical reasons, not just cardiovascular diseases. If your gynae approves of it, then please take it?
