Understanding Oedema: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options
Oedematous refers to a condition where there is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the tissues or organs, leading to swelling. This can occur due to various reasons such as injury, inflammation, allergic reactions, or certain medical conditions like heart failure or kidney disease. Oedema can affect any part of the body, including the feet, ankles, hands, face, and even internal organs. Treatment depends on the underlying cause, but may include medications to reduce fluid buildup, compression garments to improve circulation, and lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise.
