Swelling

Swelling, also known as edema, is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in tissues, leading to an increase in volume or size of the affected area. Swelling can occur in any part of the body but is most commonly observed in the extremities (such as the ankles, feet, hands, and legs), face, abdomen, or affected joints. A healthcare provider can perform a thorough evaluation, diagnose the underlying cause, and recommend appropriate treatment options tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.
