What is Lymphoedema?

  • There are two types of Lymphoedema, Primary and Secondary - it affects people of all ages - there is no cure
  • Lymphoedema occurs when the lymphatic circulation fails to function correctly, causing persistent swelling of the limb(s) and other areas of the body
  • Early diagnosis can reduce the impact of the disorder for sufferers
  • Keeping cool can help manage lymphoedema
  • Around 100,000 Australians have Primary Lymphoedema and other lymphoedema conditions
  • Cancer patients or survivors are at greater risk of developing Secondary Lymphoedema
  • Around 300,000 Australians have cancer related lymphoedema
  • 20% of Australian cancer survivors will experience secondary lymphoedema - more than 8000 new cases annually
  • If you have unexplained swelling, seek an assessment by a medical practitioner
  • Learn the symptoms and locate an ALA accredited practitioner today at http://www.lymphoedema.org.au
