Lymphedema Fibrosis
Condition called fibrosis in lymphedema cases becomes evident when the fluid in the limb becomes so dense that at the touch feels very hard. The swelling of the arm or leg is not indication of the fibrosis, the hardness of the limbs is.
It is very important to receive very early treatment for lymphedema, such as drainage and massage to keep the lymph flowing to avoid too much accumulation of the lymph in one place as the treatment of the fibrosis will become more and more difficult if the swellings are not dealt with.
The protein-reach lymph changes slowly to a solid substance. At this stage antibiotics can’t reach the bacteria in the swollen area due to the density. With inconsistent or worse no treatment at all this becomes even more problematic as the lymphedema enters the next stage.
The tissue inside the swelling becomes hard as rock and presents itself as a very serious condition and may lead to cellulitis, which requires hospital treatment. Because the orally taken antibiotic are not able to penetrate the dense tissue thoroughly bacteria can survive in the little pockets inside the swelling. That naturally causes reoccurring infections. Therefore, the patient is generally treated with IV antibiotics.
Not treated properly the fibrosis is building up more and more. The condition may lead to very dangerous deep venous thrombosis, thrombophlebitis or both. Additionally, the patient may well start experiencing the pressure on the nerves.
