Symptoms to Watch. Could It Be Lymphedema, Varicose Veins, or Edema?

Your body might be signaling a condition you haven’t named yet. Here’s what to notice:

• Swelling: Legs, arms, or ankles puffing up, especially evenings, common in 1 in 5 lymphedema cases.
• Heavy or Tired Legs: Feeling weighed down, even after rest, seen in 30% with varicose veins.
• Bulging or Twisted Veins: Blue/purple veins under skin, affecting 25% of adults.
• Tight or Shiny Skin: Stretched skin, a marker for edema in 20% of cases.
• Aching or Itching: Sore legs or itchy spots near veins, tied to venous issues.

These symptoms could mean lymphedema (fluid buildup from lymph issues), varicose veins (weak veins pooling blood), or edema (general fluid retention). Lisa, 62, ignored swollen legs until a doctor diagnosed edema—she now uses Juzo stockings, free via insurance. If you’re seeing these signs, compression helps. Our store hascompression garments for lymphedema symptoms to shop with insurance or CareCredit.
