What is Lymphedema?

Lymphedema refers to swelling that generally occurs in one of your arms or legs. Sometimes both arms or both legs swell. It may also occur in the face, trunk, abdomen, or genital area.

Lymphedema signs and symptoms, which occur in your affected arm or leg, include:

  • Swelling on arms or legs, including fingers/toes
  • A feeling of heaviness or tightness
  • Restricted range of motion
  • Aching or discomfort
  • Hardening and thickening of the skin (fibrosis)
  • Recurring infections

Complete Decongestive Therapy

Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT) is an intensive program that combines many effective treatments, including Skin Care, Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD), Compression Therapy, Lymphedema Exercises, and Education. CDT is considered the gold standard of treatment for lymphedema beyond stage 1 - meaning there is visible swelling without pitting (a temporary indentation forms on the skin when pressed) and there may be evidence of fibrosis (scarring of soft tissue). Your Lymphedema Therapist can work with you over time to make sure your lymphedema stays under control. Our client's results speak for themselves.
