What are the three stages of edema?

Stage 0 indicates a normal extremity clinically, but with abnormal lymph transport (i.e., illustrated by lymphoscintigraphy). Stage 1 is early edema, which improves with limb elevation. Stage 2 represents pitting edema that does not resolve with elevation. Stage 3 describes fibroadipose deposition and skin changes.

Stage III lymphedema is a severe and prolonged collection of edema or swelling in the body part. The skin can become hardened with a leathery feel. The color of the skin can become darker with a brownish tint. There may also be papillomas of the skin, which are small bumps that form on the skin and may leak fluid.

Is it reversible?

Normally, edema will go away on its own if you have a mild case, and medication and treatment are available if you have a more severe case.

Ánd, if the underlying cause can be reversed, edema can sometimes be cured!
