Peripheral edema is the swelling of tissues, usually in the lower limbs, due to the accumulation of fluids. The condition is commonly associated with aging, but can be caused by many other conditions, including congestive heart failure, trauma, alcoholism, altitude sickness, pregnancy, hypertension, or merely long periods of time sitting or standing without moving. Some medicines may also cause or worsen the condition.
