[Clinical aspects of acute inflammatory exacerbations lymphoedema (author's transl)]
Abstract:
An acute inflammatory exacerbation is the most frequent complication of lymphoedema. The provoking cause may be trauma. Favouring factors are obesity and heat. 1/3 of patients suffer from such acute inflammatory exacerbations. The onset is sudden, with fever, redness, pain and local heat. After repression of the acute, inflammatory episode, the oedema is often increased. Treatment involves antibiotics, corticosteroids, vaccinotherapy and bed rest. It is possible to prepare sequential treatment, drug prevention with general and dietary measures.
