Edema
WHAT is it?
Swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body’s tissues. Although Edema can affect any part of your body, it is primarily seen in the extremities of your body including legs, ankles and feet.
WHEN does it hurt?
Edema is not always painful, but may result in swelling or puffiness of the tissue directly under the skin, stretched or shiny skin and increased size.
WHY do I have it?
Sitting or standing in one position for too long, diet, pregnancy, medication or an underlying disease may be the result of Edema.
