Caffeine products or massage techniques recommended by celebrities can be used in the short term, but pathological factors need to be investigated for long-term edema. Keep drinking 1500-2000ml of water every day (small amounts and multiple times), and the effect will be better when combined with a diet rich in potassium and magnesium.
