Hi Rozita, How horrible for you. It is so scary that on top of a nasty fall, you also have the additional worry of what this means for your Lymphodoema. I don't pretend to be any kind of expert and have been fortunate enough not to have LD at the moment, but my mum had it quite badly and so I have always been quite worried about it. At one point ai managed to slice my bc side arm quite badly And went to the GP. She said, make sure you clean it well with antiseptic. The swelling might be bruising, so if you are able to do take them, anti inflammatories might help With that? If you are worried, I would ask for antibiotics which you can take as a safeguard. In fact I was told that unless I thought I was getting an infection, which I would see from redneas along the line of my veins on the inside of my arm, that there should be little risk of this, but I would still consider taking them to make sure that you don't get any kind of infection such as cellulitis which can worsen your LD. Sending hugs. Keeping the arm raised was also advised x
