LYMPHEDEMA AND BREAST CANCER TREATMENT: Swelling Causes - Lymphoedema Exercises - Prevention

Lymphedema is a usual side effect of a mastectomy, a lymph nodes biopsy or radiation therapy used to fight breast cancer symptoms and prevent cancer from spreading all over the body. In recent years when more than 85% of women undergoing treatment for breast cancer survive more than five years, the long-term adaptation to the consequences of the treatment is becoming increasingly important. It has been shown that because the effects of therapy make up the physical and psychological trauma of the disease, provoking the resumption of a normal physical and emotional life, it is very important to avoid as much as we can the appearance of any consequence.
This book has the purpose to give you the information that will enable you to learn
1) To what extent it is normal what you feel after surgery and when to seek medical help
2) How common is lymphedema after mastectomy and who are the most likely to develop lymphedema

6) What treatment you can follow when lymphedema appears
7) What precautions you can take to avoid lymphedema
8) What type of regular exercise and physical activity is appropriate for you
