In case you're not scared enough, it's also a symptom of congestive heart failure.
Helping my mother with this I learned how to help with the symptom of fluid swollen feet. Lie down so your feet are at a higher level than your heart, and bend your feet into a toe-pointing position then bend them in the opposite direction as far as you can and repeat for five or ten minutes. It will help with the swelling, but the things that might be causing this are not things you should be ignoring. Good luck.
