Fluid retention in arms. Is this normal? What can I do to reduce the swelling?
jennaverebNov 22, 2014
Hello, I had a brachioplasty almost 4 weeks ago. Yesterday I noticed my arms and hands are starting to puff up a little like a balloon. More so in one arm than the other. I wore a compression bandage for 3 weeks and just switched to Embrace therapy. Is this normal, and if so, what can I do to reduce the swelling? The doctor that performed the surgery is out of state. I appreciate any opinions or help. Jennavereb
