  • Pamela Atkinson Hello Everyone, I am very happy to be a part of  Lymphedema Community.  I want to share with you my story.  I had a complete hysterectomy due to uterine cancer in March 2013.  I am truly grateful to God and my doctors for catching my cancer early before it had a chance to spread to other areas.  I underwent radiation after my surgery. Basically, I feel great except that I developed lymphedema in my legs and feet.  I am learning how to control it now, but I do have pain sometimes, I have to wrap my feet, elevate my legs and feet every day, etc. I saw some lotion on the lymphedema products website, does this lotion help reduce the swelling, does anyone know or have any additional information. Thank you for your help and advice.

  • Jennifer Jaszewski Hello!  I'm a new therapist and had an issue come up with my patient.  Prior to receiving treatment, she complained of anterior ankle pain.  The pain is present with palpation along her anterior tibialis tendon.  She is responding well to bandaging and initially stated her ankle pain was decreasing and her gait improved.  Today, she noted increased pain along the anterior tibialis tendon.   Has anyone had this issue before?  Could it be anterior tibialis tendonitis?  Thanks for the help!
