Salt, bloating and water retention?

I generally eat a fairly low salt diet and if I have any dish that has even a bit in it I feel like all my cells become completely waterlogged and I can't take my rings off or anything as my hands become so swollen, along with my legs. It then takes about 3 days to go down!

Does anyone else find if they have the tiniest bit of salt they retain water like crazy?

    My mom had the same problems, and also with milk/dairy, go get your thyroid b12 levels checked. Ale Dodd, I don't know the correlation between them m but,,,, who knows. Or maybe you have underlying heart problems that cause adema? Just a guess
