That little bit of oedema matters! Treat promptly and keep legs well. Leg oedema can be the reason that wounds are not healing treat the oedema with clinically optimum compression .... all eyes on legs! @LegsMatter @BritishLymph @AWTvnf @RCNWales @LymphNetWales

Exercise is so important for our health and none more so than for our legs. I felt inspired to start Couch to 5K again today. #SayitShareitChangeit @LegsMatter Any form of exercise be it passive movement of the ankle or a short walk will do wonders for your leg health

April is Limb Loss & Limb Difference Awareness Month & throughout April it's so important we take notice of the #LimbDifference community. We can do this by creating conversation around #LimbLoss, sharing our own experiences & bringing awareness to the support that is out there.
