Suggest Remedy For Swelling In Foot And Ankle

I have a swollen foot and ankle. I am on padded cement floors all day for 23 years. When I stay off of it for a day it feels better. I don t think I m drinking enough water and was wondering if it is from that. My feet are in pain in the heels on a regular bases. Feels like I m walking on spikes.
