Foot Pressure and POTS: Anyone Else?

Does anyone else feet sometimes feel like they are about to explode from pressure? My compression socks help so much but without them I swear my feet are going to explode and wondering if this might be apart of POTS?

It's highly plausible as POTS happens because of the blood flowing straight to the feet when upright.

Yes! My feet get so swollen and large, especially during the summer or when I’m too warm. Compression socks sometimes don’t even help, I have very slim legs so even with all the pressure I can have it’s like it’s just not enough.
