Pelvic Swelling or Lymphedema Exercises

Abdomen, Trunk, Genital, and Pelvis Lymphedema and Swelling are common after surgery and radiation for various cancers, like Gynecologic, Melanoma, and others in the pelvis, abdomen, or lower body.

There is a lot of support for leg lymphedema treatment, but what about the pelvis and abdomen?

There are a few main ways we treat and reduce lymphedema in therapy, including:

▪️Compression- compression shorts or padded inserts that provide support.
▪️Lymphatic Drainage - using a specific sequence can help move the fluid out of the area. See my YouTube channel for a step-by-step video on this!
▪️Exercise- using your muscles and help pump the fluid out of the area.
▪️Deep breathing - this stimulates the deep lymphatics in the abdomen. Yes, There is a video for this, too!

But let's show a few specific exercises here to get fluid moving, including:

🔸Deep Breathing
🔸Trunk Rotation
🔸Pelvic tilts
🔸Bridges
OR! simply do movements or exercises that you enjoy! Anything counts!
