Experiecing edema

Hello everyone, Has anyone been experiencing edema on either their feet or face after dialysis treatment?

A few weeks ago I have been getting edema on my face. To make the swelling go away I wipe or compress a cold towel on my eyes. The water eventually comes out on my eyes on it's own.

Lately I have been getting edema on my feet. In the morning when I wake up the swelling (from the previous day [because I do my peritoneal treatments at night]) has gone away but throughout the day the swelling comes back. I try to watch how much water I intake and what I'm eating.

Does anyone have any home remedies I could do during the day to make the swelling go down / go away so it is not as bad as it is during the day or when I sleep so I don't have to increase my solution?
