> I’ve got issues with high blood pressure and swelling in the lower extremities
Edema in the lower legs is a relatively common side effect of some types of blood pressure medication. If you are on BP medication, talk to the prescribing doctor about it.
If you aren't on medication, you should discuss starting something with your doctor. High blood pressure is a risk factor for many things you dont want to happen and is very treatable. (Of course, the standard health advice to improve your diet and exercise more very much applies here as well).
