What Causes Swelling And Pressure In The Body Along With Excessive Weight Gain?

I’m experiencing what feels like my entire body is swollen and tight . I’ve experienced a rapid amount of weight gain and body feels tight. I’m uncomfortable and it is tiring to workout like I normally do. Just below my breast area on both sides I cramp and I am unable to move until the cramp subsides.

Possible causes like hypothyroidism or cardia or renal failure or infection anemia etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. please check for kidney and liver function tests. Get it done echocardiogram if heart, please consult your physician/ nephrologist they will examine and treat you accordingly.
