If I may be so bold: I did not hear cellulitis mentioned. I came down with cellulitis in both legs about 20 years ago. The left leg much worse than the right. Antibiotics corrected the cellulitis. However, I had difficulty dealing with daily swelling for years after even though I slept with my legs elevated and wearing compression stockings. It wasn't until a friend suggested Lymphatic Drainage Message Therapy about five years ago that I got the situation under control. The right leg has returned to normal with little additional attention required. The left leg still requires periodic Lymphatic Drainage Message Therapy to keep the swelling under control, but is a significant improvement as demonstrated when I don't do the therapy the calf area swells to twice its normal size within a week.
Thank you. I'm so glad for you.
Shut up white and blue shirts, let the red shirt talk pleaser.. jeez 🤦♀️
I had a total hysterectomy May of last year and had a little swelling in my ankles which in November of last year both feet started swelling every day and my doctor thinks it's due to my blood pressure medication and she lowered my metformin too because I had a problem with it in the past , I'm looking for exercises to help get the fluid retention down and I don't have a bed to lay flat on and I can't get on the floor so is there something out here for me to try?
I do exercises sitting on the couch or chair, it’s helps and eventually I got to where I could move around more
Woah! *Lightbulb goes on*. I started getting fluid behind my knees, ankle edema, etc. after my second laproscopic surgery (through belly button)... VERY interesting...
Ugh! Was an informative video. No offense, but I wish the guy (Red shirt) could of explained things, without being cut off every time he began to share a point.
Red Shirt : "You need to look out for swelling around areas..."
*cut off mid sentence*
Blue shirt : "hold up, so what are we looking for...swelling? Or just enlarged areas?"
Red shirt ::continues:: " that have been injured before.., or unless.."
*cut off mid fragment*
White shirt "so were looking for new injuries or ? I'm not following explain.?"
Red shirt : :bites tongue:: " yes, swollen areas, as I'll explain, from new or old injuries, possibly... "
*being interrupted multi directions::*
Blue shirt:" yeah, so you mentioned that you'd explain, but this is visual right ..? No insignificant signs? Because i m not familiar, I'd like to know more, so tell us about why it caused!"
Red shirts: " okay, yeah, if its only one leg, then its more likely lymph edema... "
White shirt :" so not just edema?
....
So that's about the way this video was , in my eyes. The exercises video was helpful. This one was just frustration. I dk what I'm more likely to have because the Two admitted to not knowing the topic, couldn't refrain from repeating him, every time he got a chance to speak again, from! Being cut off. Guy has mad Patience.
Sorry, I had to be rude on this comment.
I've a serious condition that needs facts, so I can deal with the next fifty years, but the guy with answers can't share because the guys suppose to be helping people are trying to help people lol.
Jamie Petty ... Yeah you're right. They just pretty much just confused everybody. I mean you had to sit there and decipher it like a puzzle. 😠😤
how was your condition now? 5years later
I had major abdominal surgery but also had issues that caused lymphedema but after this surgery it has gotten worse and they simply have no clue and no direction to guide me in...thank you so much I wish I lived closer so I can be a patient of yours! Blessings to all your patients and your guys work!

What about a C-section? I've had two but the last one with my son ten years ago was when my feet, ankles feet and calves started swelling and have never really stopped. There was a student in the room when I had my last one and I was in surgery for like an hour or more longer than the first one which was only about twenty mins start to finish and out in recovery room. The student Dr was naming parts of my body to the other Dr and all kind of things that I didn't understand fully what was going on because I couldn't see or feel mostly anything for certain down below my neck region, and I was ten x more sore and in excruciating pain after this second c section and I never read anything anywhere about lymphedema until this video and you pretty much made it clear that my c section scar and surgery was the cause of my swelling from the get go. Thanks for your help
could PARASITES cause
all these blockages in the
Lymphatic Systems!??
causing swelling/edema?
this young handsome man
is very articulate..
I think they can. From research they do alot of things.
Suggestion? Using Remote Mic's would Help .difficult to Hear you clearly..
I've been sleeping on a recliner since my total hysterectomy that the recliner folds out into a bed shape but I've had enough of it and I really can't do the leg lifts in it, I use to be a very active person and done Tai Chi for 10 years plus but since my surgery I'm different now .
What about primary lymphedema? It deserves attention to! 😉
I want to thank you for helping me get the Fluid out of my leg There were days when I couldn't even walk and I had to leave work because the pain was so bad I just want to thank you because I sure didn't get any help from the doctors Thank you again and I'm glad I found this video
i had total knee replacement last year in my right leg. Now i have swelling in both legs from the shins down. i have bumps all over me lower legs too. im gonna go to the doctor with this. I hope I dont have lymphedema.
If you are suffering from Edema then search for Doctor iyhere on youtube, come and thank me later
This is not true you can have swelling in both legs and your abdomen with no swelling in your feet and it is Lymphoedema
After a fall with a family member & some minor injury to his leg ( scrape) he began to show swelling in both feet.
What is the diagnosis ?
Aloha, I have chronic Lymphedema partially from rare Dercum's Disease. Dercum's disease is a very painful disease that has many painful tumors, partly in the Lymphatic system, affecting the tissues under the skin, the facia, connective tissues, and adipose tissues, and more. Multiple painful growths, ( some are lipomas) often block the lymph and also grow from setting lymph. What about doing Lymphatic Drainage massage?

My mothers left leg is so bad. It’s shiny and liquid comes out
Swollen

My right leg after RTKR. Water blisters. 4 months post-op. R leg is 3” bigger than left.
Knee surgeon says it’s normal to have this for a year or even 18 months. Wish I’d never had this surgery. I’m miserable.
Will having a Breast Reduction surgery cause that too? I’ve had two rotator cuff surgeries on my left side and the Breast Reduction. Thank you!
Thanks for your video but can you tell me please what if both legs are swollen and red from toes to half the legs and it doesn't go way unless she put up for really long time!! Thanks p.s she is diabetic
And if its caused by meds??
I had gastric bypass surgery in May 2007 but I had the edema prior to that surgery. I now weigh 284 lbs. My left leg itches off and on every now and then. It used to leak but doesn't anymore. I walk 10,000+ steps a day. Do I have lymphedema?

the 2nd one after i changed my diet and walk a lot. my blood test for kidney and heart says negative for now. my EnT Dr worried at first but he says the test is negative.
.
maybe my sleep position or driving long hours? i sleep on a chair for 14 days after surgery...maybe graviti?
i changed to very healthy diet now and drink a lot of water the swelling almost gone now. im worried.i still overweight. try so hard to lose weight now. i just 36 years old

I see a picture but ther is no sound
thank you so much for this video!
This is interesting, just seen dr today with swelling in both legs and told it was lymphedema. Not interested that I don’t pee much so will sort it out myself
I don’t have much success with Drs. I do better researching myself to get to the root of the problem, what to do and how to prevent flares or disease. So thankful for PT Docs Bob & Brad and other generous medical educator channels. 🙏🏼 Thank you!!!
Are you drinking enough water? Maybe to train yourself to go try to pee every hour would help.
I went to ER due to pain on left side flank and back and got a CT scan. It showed an abnormality in left kidney and an MRI was done later showing some masses inside left kidney. Soon after the MRI, where they put the dye into the veins, I got really bad lymphedema both feet and legs. Could the dye have affected me? I still have it. I've been trying to get help here but we have only 1 lymphedema therapist in town and I cannot go out of town due to immobility. The 1 therapist is booked up and I'm on a waiting list so been trying to learn ways to reduce the swelling myself. Always had a tendency to get swollen ankles during long car rides or sitting down too much but this is way different. I cannot even lay down to raise my feet over my heart to get relief due to the continued back pain issues.
Foot surgery too

The guy in the blue!!!! Stop interrupting to ask a question that he is in the process of explaining.!! I have learned a lot to help my lymphedema from your videos but they have to be watched several times because you guys are like watching a ping pong ball go back and forth. They would be much better if you let one person lead
Can you have swelling in just one leg and it be linked to heart failure?
