Lymphedema: Symptoms, Causes and Treatments

Difficulty Moving Joints

Be aware of any difficulties moving joints. When fluids build up due to lymphedema, it would lead to stiffness in your joints, elbows, knees, toes, and fingers. As a result, you might feel hard to move the limbs when doing some physical activities. This symptom would occur separately or at the same time with other signs of lymphedema. Consult your doctor as soon as you notice this condition to get early treatment and avoid disturbing your daily life. [3]
