Lymphoedema.

Rebecca Penzer1.   

Abstract

Lymphoedema is a symptom of a malfunctioning lymphatic system. It is characterised by chronic swelling caused by the accumulation of lymph. Rebecca Penzer examines the nursing management of lymphoedema and the ways in which non-specialist nurses can offer support and promote self-care in patients with this potentially debilitating condition.
