6Tight Clothing
Many people with lymphedema often feel uncomfortable when they put on their clothing. This occurs even when they do not gain significant weight. For instance, your bras might fit tightly, the bracelet and watch feel snug uncomfortably, or the rings do not fit. All of these might indicate lymphedema. In some cases, you might have difficulty fitting the arm into the sleeve on each side of the body as well. Since lymphedema might progress gradually, you might notice swelling first in your arms or shoulders until you feel tightness. [6]
