If it's an Edema problem, it might be resulting from Salt intake.
Three things I've seen written that might help, is either reduce Water, reduce Salt or take Diuretics.
May be the case you might have been not taking in enough water perhaps, but I'd use any labelling on your food to ascertain if your Salt might be a bit high, and then reduce accordingly a bit. This would rule that out, and if that isn't working adjust water accordingly.
Hopefully either thing will work, without needing possible Diuretics.
