Swelling in an arm or leg after lymph node removal or radiation — most commonly after breast cancer treatment — is common, and it responds well to early, consistent management. Our physiotherapists provide manual lymphatic drainage, compression therapy guidance and a practical home routine, aimed at reducing swelling and preventing it from progressing. Navi Mumbai's spread-out layout means a routine hospital trip can easily eat up half a day — our local team is positioned across Vashi, Nerul, Belapur and Kharghar so care reaches you without that detour.
It's usually a manageable, long-term condition rather than one that's fully cured — but with consistent early management, swelling can be significantly reduced and controlled, and many patients maintain a good quality of life.
Ideally as soon as your surgeon or oncologist gives the go-ahead — early intervention tends to produce better outcomes than waiting until swelling has become significant.
No — it's a very gentle, light-pressure technique, quite different from a deep-tissue massage. Most patients find it soothing rather than uncomfortable.
