Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

Anyone who is on their feet 10 hours a day can have swollen feet, ankles and/or legs. A heart condition can also cause this so you may have this swelling due to both issues.

Are you able to modify your work so that you are not on your feet so much?

Is this swelling new? Is the heart stent new? If so, you need to contact your doctor to rule out a blood clot and she/he will be able to help you further.
Best,
Susan
