    Treatment Options for Lymphedema

    Occasionally, cancer treatments have unwanted side effects. When it involves damage to or removal of parts of the lymphatic system and lymph fluid can’t drain from those areas, swelling, also called lymphedema, can occur. Not only is it uncomfortable for your patients, but it can also cause other complications such as poor sleep, weight gain, hair loss and limited mobility. In this podcast, Christine Hudacek, MPT, CLT, a physical therapist and lymphatic drainage expert at UM St. Joseph Medical Center, addresses what lymphedema is, which patients are most at risk, when and how to refer a patient to a lymphatic drainage specialist, and much more.
