What is Lymphoedema?
Lymphoedema is a condition where lymph fluid builds up in tissues, often in the arms or legs, due to damage or dysfunction of the lymphatic system. It can occur after cancer treatment, surgery, or trauma, and may cause swelling, heaviness, reduced mobility, or recurring infections.
What is Lipoedema?
Lipoedema is a chronic condition that causes painful, disproportionate fat accumulation, usually in the legs (and sometimes arms). It often appears around puberty, pregnancy, or menopause, and often does not improve with diet or exercise. Symptoms include pain, swelling, easy bruising, and heaviness.
