AWARENESS IS KEY
Lymphedema can happen to anyone.
While it is often associated with cancer treatment, lymphedema can also develop as a result of surgery, radiation therapy, infection, trauma, congenital conditions, obesity, or chronic venous disease.
Knowing the signs and symptoms is important. Early recognition and treatment can make a significant difference, so be sure to seek medical advice if you suspect you may have lymphedema.
