Market Overview
The Lymphedema Treatment Market Outlook and Analysis By Type (Primary Lymphedema, Secondary Lymphedema), By Affected Area (Lower Extremity, Upper Extremity, Genitalia), By Treatment (Compression Devices Bandaging, Laser Therapy, Drug Therapy Surgery) and By End-User (Hospitals and clinics, Clinical Research Organizations, Research Academic Institutes) - Forecast to 2032.
Lymph is a fluid rich in protein that moves throughout the body via lymph vessels. This fluid carries bacteria, viruses, and other waste to lymph nodes. The lymph nodes then filter the fluid and remove the impurities from the body. Lymphedema occurs when the lymphatic system is blocked or damaged, and the fluid starts accumulating under the skin and results in swelling of the area. Normally in lymphedema, the arm or a leg is swollen. The swelling of both arm and leg is a rare situation. Sometimes lymphedema can affect the chest wall and abdomen. Primary and secondary lymphedema are the two types of lymphedema. Mutations in genes cause primary lymphedema, while secondary lymphedema is found in persons with a defect in the lymphatic system that was normal earlier. The disorder of lymphedema is not curable but can be kept under control through proper lymphedema treatment. The symptoms like swelling can identify the disorder. In the beginning stages, the swelling will be soft, but when proper treatment is not taken, and the disorder is neglected, the soft fluid will start thickening and becomes fibrous. The skin will start looking grainy. The patient may start experiencing pain or heaviness in the affected area. Early identification of the disorder may save the patient from suffering pain and take suitable treatment. The increase in patients with chronic diseases, advancements in diagnostic technologies, improvements in healthcare systems are some factors that boost the lymphedema treatment market.
