Lymphedema Clinic
Lymphedema sometimes happens when your lymphatic fluid builds up after surgery or radiation treatments and leads to the extreme swelling of an arm or leg.
If you are diagnosed with lymphedema after cancer treatment or surgery, visit our lymphedema rehab program, Baton Rouge's only lymphedema rehab program recognized by the National Lymphedema Network.
Our certified lymphedema therapists work with you one-on-one to promote optimal physical and psychological recovery and will give you information on what to expect after surgery, how to control edema, what exercises will help you, and how to prevent future instances of lymphedema.
