Hyperkeratosis

Another possible symptom of lymphedema is hyperkeratosis is the thickening of your skin. Fluid buildup in this condition would make this area become thickened. You might notice it in some areas such as feet, legs, hands, or arms without or with some skin changes like warts or blisters. It is very important to keep the skin clean when you are suffering from hyperkeratosis. To alleviate some symptoms, consider using a therapeutic-based moisturizer on a daily basis. [5]
