Read MoreWHAT IS LYMPHEDEMA?
Lymphedema is the abnormal collection of fluid in the tissues due to disruption of the flow of the lymphatic system, typically occurring in extremities, causing swelling, sometimes weeping and ulcerations. The lymphatic system is a network of vessels similar to veins and capillaries that are connected to lymph nodes that help remove toxins and waste products from the body. When there is a disruption or blockage in the lymph nodes, the fluid running though those vessels leaks into the surrounding tissues causing swelling. Lymphedema that continues uncontrolled can be very lifestyle limiting and lead to complications such as wounds or cellulitis (infection of the skin).
