Oedema is swelling caused by the accumulation of fluid in a part of the body. It is often accompanied by inflammation. Oedema usually affects the feet, ankles and legs, although it can occur anywhere in the body. Pulmonary oedema, for example, occurs in the lungs and can cause difficulty breathing.


Symptoms of oedema


The main symptoms of oedema are:


Stretched and shiny looking skin

Feeling of heaviness or even pain

Causes of oedema


Oedema is caused by excess fluid becoming trapped in the body’s tissues, and this is often caused by fluid leaking from the bloodstream. Therefore, many of the causes of oedema have to do with things that affect the patient’s circulation. Factors that can lead to oedema include:


Eating a lot of salt

Being overweight

Sitting or standing for a long time in the same position

Pregnancy

Certain medications

Injury

Liver problems

Kidney problems

Heart problems

Problems with the lymph nodes

Insect bites/stings

Infections
