Patient Information

What are the symptoms of Lymphedema?

Lymphedema symptoms usually begin with swelling of the hands or feet. Anyone who notices persistent swelling in an extremity should seek medical advice. If lymphedema is diagnosed and if treatment begins early, the prognosis for improvement of the condition is much greater than if the swelling is ignored and remains untreated.
