Support for Lymphedema

Since lymphedema is a chronic condition, it must be managed over a lifetime. NYU Langone doctors and rehabilitation experts provide ongoing support for people with lymphedema. This includes monitoring the effectiveness of lifestyle modifications, which can help alleviate symptoms and prevent them from worsening.
