Epsom Salt for swelling...
I got foot surgery about six weeks ago, and have been told that I'll have some swelling for some time in the area where the surgery was performed.
I heard that soaking your feet in a mixture of warm water and epsom salt helps to reduce swelling.
Is this also true of post- foot surgery? Or does this only apply to injuries that have just occurred?
Also, how often should I do this?

no it should help. but you should still expect swelling for a while after srugery...it always takes a while.
you should do it for about 15-20 minutes once or twice a day
