7.Compression Garments
A special cloth sleeve or stocking puts pressure on your arm or leg to help fluid move through and out of your swollen limb. Make sure to wear it when you exercise and when you travel by plane, since sky-high altitude can make lymphedema worse. You may need a prescription to get one with the right fit.
8.Compression Device
A trained therapist can use a machine kind of like a blood pressure cuff to help move lymph fluid out of your arm or leg. They’ll put a sleeve or boot with a series of chambers over the swollen area. A pump fills the pockets with air and then deflates them over and over in a specific pattern to squeeze the lymph back toward your body.
