What is Lymphedema?

Lymphedema is a chronic condition caused by the buildup of lymphatic fluid, often leading to swelling in the arms, legs, or other body parts. If untreated, it can cause pain, limited movement, and repeated infections. Understanding the causes of lymphedema and recognizing lymphoedema symptoms is key to timely treatment.
