Understanding Lymphoedema After Breast Cancer

Why Lymph Awareness Matters

March shines a light on the lymphatic system – and on a topic that often remains in the background: lymphoedema after breast cancer.

For many women, recovery does not end with cancer treatment. Studies show that one in five women develops lymphatic complications. What many do not realise: the lymphatic system does not regenerate on its own. Lymphoedema is a chronic, lifelong condition.

That is why listening to your body matters

Recognising changes early can help reduce swelling, improve comfort and significantly enhance quality of life.
