I feel blessed to have found you. I had an epiphany one day that perhaps my lymphatic system could be what ails me. Then you showed up in my CZcams feed. I love your quiet, clear instructions. I appreciate you.
I’m so happy right now that I could cry! I developed a large genital lymphedema in my upper pubic area after have had an injury to my foot and leg, and subsequently having been placed (ineffectively) on the same antibiotic for a year by my doctor for the resulting infection which, unfortunately, went septic. I noticed the swelling in my groin beginning after I recovered from the sepsis, and it has gotten worse and worse in the seven years since. Every time I ask, my doctor says there are no options or treatments. This has been the source of so much pain and embarrassment and despair and anguish, and I’m so thrilled to hear that there ARE options out there! Thank you so much for posting this video, it’s going to be life-changing (literally) for me!
There are absolutely certified lymphedema therapists that treat genital lymphedema. Sending you my very best!
Hope you the best Brian
I'm 63 I noticed a swelling groin area. Right side right next to penis I've noticed a swelling about inch long. It comes and goes past ,6 months. Now when I cough it's pain full. And I noticed it very enlarged past couple days. It's starting to .have sharp pains. What to do is it parrisights. Can any one help.
Hey! This comment is actually very specific and might relate to something I’m going through. I actually went through lymphoma few years back now. I’m doing okay after years, but recently fell on my ankle badly that got infected. It was pink and obviously started to spread or at least be in the surrounding lag and ankle tissue… I finally went to urgent care and got prescribed some antibiotics. However I am careful about my stomach/gut bacteria and opted not to take them, but still have the full regimen. Now suddenly about a month later I have a pelvic/groin swelling and possibly lymphedema on that side where I initially fell and scraped my ankle badly that got pretty infected. - Now it could be unrelated (hopefully not) but a part of my hopeful intuition on this thinks it might not be coincidence I have this there now about a month after initially injuring myself. Assuming this is what I have (if it doesn’t get better I’ll see a doc) it sounds kind of similar to what you posted. What has helped for you and maybe in regard to this view with helping the localized groin lymph node swelling to go down? Hope you are feeling better yourself in that regard since I see your post was a couple years back. ✌️
@@williamgrahamify have you had an infection or injury to that leg/side? If it’s out of the blue especially with no potential cause you can generally point to I’d see a doctor. And maybe even if you can.
I am a new grad PT at a very rural hospital. Have taken Level 1 and 2ab pelvic health! I can’t wait to use some of these techniques. Actually watching this because I have my first lymphedema patient tomorrow! Very helpful thank you for the video!
Awesome! You’ll do great! 😊
Thank you for the video. Not much information for genital lymphedema elsewhere.
Thank you very much for this video. I’ll be sharing with some of the ladies in my cancer group.
I’m so happy it’s helpful 🙂
This is awesome - thanks so much!!!
hi that was an excellent video most help full thank you👍
Thanks so much you are so good god bless you
THANK YOU!!!
How is pelvic lymph swelling differentiated from an inguinal hernia - generally speaking. What does this swelling in the pelvis area look like? Additionally how does one know if they are dealing with lymphatic swelling, a UTI or swelling from hip arthritis.
Thank you
Wow finally feel hopeful. I have a huge pubis mons lyphodema. It came from losing weight and having the skin hanging. It's torture i get pressure sores and infections. Its hard to sit and walk. Thank you for the tips.
Hi, which type of doctor should we see if we need a diagnosis of lymphedema ?
Okay but how about air pressure or pneumatic can we get some type of air pressure sleeve pump they use it on pilot use it for G-Force squeezes the legs
Would pelvic tilts be a good form of exercise for this?
Would a hernia belt for guys with strap crossed help apply pressure for the womans pad you presented.
If some of the swelling is being caused by having an abdominal binder, would you do MLD with it off
My left teste has gotten larger with sometimes dull ache like pain associated through the teste and directly above it in lower pelvis just above testicle and also get pain or pressure over pubis symphysis or public bone over it and each side especially if standing. The teste even hangs lower and appears larger.
Your a joy to watch! ❤🫂
I had inguinal hernia surgery and have been left with swelling what would you reccomend to reduce this? I am 5 weeks post op
Is it applicable for men as well?
Hello thanks for the information is there an email to contact you on ? I have a question
Hi, thankyou for your video’s, so helpful! But i have a question. I just want to make sure i understand this right: If you have swollen lymph nodes in your groin, then you stroke upwards from there. But normally the area under the belly button must have downwards strokes, right?
No you want the fluids to go towards your heart. Not down towards your pelvis and legs
Stretches and core exercises can make the problem worse? something like Yoga I mean
😊I can't wear panties or shorts without interference with getting them down to pee due to an injury which took my lymphodema from knee high to whole body.....so I need another solution
What is your actual job? I love your videos.
I'm a physical therapist 🙂
@@CancerRehabPThi, which type of doctor do we see if we want to be diagnosed and treated for lymphedema ?
Thank you for the video. Some feedback:
1) movement upward does not help when lump is stuck below an 8" incision above the pubic bone. What is the solution to this?
2) bike shorts offers compression everywhere except where compression is needed. A panty works better. However there are no good panties on the market that pull up and out to the hip bones, providing compression in the pubic area, but not "tummy compression" which pushes lymph down. Leonisa made one, but they discontinued it.
I guess Im randomly asking but does any of you know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow lost the account password. I would love any tips you can give me!
@Kaiden Dax instablaster :)
@Everett Kane thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Everett Kane It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you really help me out :D
@Kaiden Dax Happy to help :D
Pelvic floor exercises sound good can you show us how to do some of those pelvic floor exercises I'd love to see you on the floor doing some pelvic exercises
Can anyone help?
I think i have lymphedema in my groin but not sure.
In january i noticed a bit of firmness to the right side of my groin, my doctor checked it and didn't diagnose me with anything. Then i did a keto diet which contained high fats and my groin would get more firm quite often, my groin also got a little bigger since januray.
The reason its hard to know if i have genital lymphedema is because when i eat right it gets better, when i lay on my bed face down my groin becomes soft as the left side.
How do you know for sure if you have genital lymphedema? I didnt have surgery or anything. I believe I gained weight.
My symptoms are just firmess on right side of my groin, if i eat food that aren't recommended for lymphedema nutrition.
Im losing weight too.
How is ur health now?
Ma'am, please help me!
I'm having a swelling in the upper part of my left labia minora. It has no colour change or itching. Just like the one occurs on the eye lids... It's really painful while walking , it has just been 2days.. I'm 15years old & not able to contact a doctor now...
Please help me ma'am
Waiting for your response!
Thank you ma'am 🙏♥
Hey did you get any solution for this??
@@a_a_r_u yes dear.... If you need help , I can give you a tip.. it actually helped me
@@kosakionodera9752 plzz tell me how you cured it?
@@a_a_r_u Dip a clean soft towel in lukewarm water and give a warm compress to that area. Do it thrice a day.... please make sure that the water is not too hot and your cloth is clean and soft... You shouldn't get burnt... If the swelling & pain fades away with 2 or 3 days, then most probably it might be due to hard pressure given to that... Like when you do biking and even sitting on hard surface! if it doesn't go away with two or three days then please seek medical care as soon as possible because this can be due to some underlying infection... You should get medical support...
Hope you will get cured very soon...
Have a nice day mate😊💝
@@kosakionodera9752 thanku so much dear 💕 I'll try this...Hope it works for me.
not true on direction. why would you want to direct cellular waste towards the heart. this is unfortunately a huge error in lymphatic massage. push everything down and away from the heart
The lymphatic vessels are completely separate from the cardiovascular system’s blood vessels. 👀
@@FOhlookajew interstitially
@@cognizable1 you want theextra fluids pumped thru the system and out of the body. Pushing it down builds up the blockage
@@bessevaraven859 where are you pumping it up to?
