Lymphedema, or lymphatic obstruction, is a long-term condition where excess fluid collects in tissues causing swelling (edema). The lymphatic system is a part of the immune system and vital for immune function. Fluid called lymph circulates within the lymphatic system.

​We can you secure a lymphedema pump. Lymphedema pumps manage the edema through inflatable, pneumatically controlled sleeves that are placed around the area affected by fluid retention. Within the sleeve is a series of overlapping cells which, when filled with air from the lymphedema pump, inflate and thus apply pressure to the area. This pressure, which is applied sequentially and in a controlled manner, allows excess fluid to be drained from the surrounding tissue which reduces swelling and enables proper lymph drainage. Of course, a complex issue such as lymphedema can't be managed through a single technique, and so lymphedema pumps are generally used in conjunction with a complete decongestive therapy to ensure that the flow of excess lymph fluid does not make its way to other areas of the body.Other methods of therapy that are combined with lymphedema pumps include therapeutic bandages that apply pressure and resistance to veins. This added resistance gives lymph vessels a sort of crutch which allows them to work harder, thus enabling proper fluid draining. Combined, the techniques of lymphedema pumps, therapeutic bandages, and complete decongestive therapy have been shown to greatly improve the condition of lymphedema sufferer
