Swelling while on a cruise

When I went on a recent cruise my feet/ankles swelled up quite a bit.
I drank plenty of water, walked a lot and elevated my feet often but
it didn't seem to help. By the end of the week it almost hurt to
walk. What can I do to prevent this from happening again on my next
cruise?
Thanks!
