My mother had lymphedema in her arm, and went for lymph massage. Now she is retaining fluid in her lower abdomen, and both legs. The doctor said this was a good thing, because it meant her body was fighting. How could this possibly be a good thing?
Hi. Thanks for your query. The treatment of lymph-massage itself is an irrational thing to do. This is not authenticated. You should consult a Doctor first to see why this problem, There are many reasons and some are indicative of serious medical disorders. Also you will need a battery of investigations and treatment will depend upon the final diagnosis.
