Medical Conditions - Edema

Edema indicates swelling caused due to excess fluid trapped in body tissues. It often occurs in hands, arms, feet, ankles, and legs. Edema can occur due to prolonged sitting or standing in one place for a long time and venous insufficiency in the legs. Eating fewer salts in the diet helps to manage it. Wearing compression socks on the swelled area and raising the part of the body affected with edema above the heart helps to control edema.
