Lymphedema is a pathological accumulation of lymph in tissues. The lymphatic system is unable to remove excess fluid, resulting in swelling. It most often results from unilateral damage to the upper or lower extremity. The cause may be congenital (lymphatic system defects) or acquired (trauma, tumors, postoperative complications, etc.). The most important treatment methods include lymphatic drainage, special bandages, wraps, compression garments, and physical therapy. Lymphedema always requires the supervision of a specialist.

Schuessler salts can be used as an adjunctive therapy.

Salt No. 8 Sodium chloride

Salt No. 9 Sodium Phosphate

Take 2 tablets of each salt 2-4 times a day.

Locally, you can use compresses or creams with Salt No. 10 Sodium Sulfate. Apply a thin layer before lymphatic drainage.

Medicinal herbs: Sweet clover (use very carefully, after consulting a doctor), calendula
