When the lymphatic system experiences trauma or injury, lymphedema can occur. It can also be the result of passed down genetics. Lymphedema is fluid that builds in the bodies extremities. This fluid build-up causes pain and discomfort and increases the risk of infections in the limbs.
The Bio Abdominal Compression Garment with Full Leg uses compression therapy to move fluid build-up distally and proximally from the foot toward regional nodes for subsequent excretion. Moving stagnant fluid aids in pain relief associated with swelling in the lower regions of the body.
The garment is designed to be user-friendly for easy donning and doffing. This ensures that therapy sessions start quickly and patients are not overcome with the frustration of taking large amounts of equipment on and off. The high-quality compression garment resists showing signs of wear and tear from frequent usage.
