What is Lymphoedema?

Lymphoedema is swelling (oedema) that develops when lymph fluid builds up in the tissues under the skin or sometimes deeper in the abdomen (belly) and chest areas. This happens when the lymphatic system is not working properly. It usually occurs in an arm or leg, but can also affect other parts of the body, such as the breast.

RISK FACTORS

  • Surgery to remove lymph nodes – the more nodes removed, the greater the risk

  • Radiation therapy

  • Taxane-based chemotherapy drugs

  • An infection in the at-risk limb

  • Overweight/ obesity

  • Injury to the lymphatic system (e.g. a tumour growing near a lymph node or vessel)

  • Underlying primary lymphoedema

  • Inflammatory disorders such as arthritis

  • Reduced activity
