Q&A
What is lymphedema and how does it happen?
Lymphedema is swelling caused by a blockage or damage in the lymphatic system, preventing lymph fluid from draining properly. It often occurs after cancer treatment but can develop from other causes as well.
Can lymphedema be cured?
There is no permanent cure for lymphedema, but it can be effectively managed with physical therapy, compression, manual lymph drainage, and exercise to control swelling and prevent complications.
How does physical therapy help lymphedema?
Physical therapy for lymphedema includes manual lymphatic drainage, compression bandaging, therapeutic exercise, and education on skin care and swelling prevention. This approach helps reduce fluid buildup and improve mobility.
When should I seek help for swelling in my limbs?
If you notice persistent or unexplained swelling—especially if it’s accompanied by tightness, discomfort, or skin changes—seek professional care. Early intervention can greatly reduce the risk of long-term complications.
