Some patients develop breast/chest lymphoedema following breast cancer treatment. Historically this group of patients has been managed in the same way as those with limb lymphoedema, through the application of compression in the form of vests or bras. Some patients reported pain and the feeling of being in a 'strait jacket' and, therefore, abandoned these items for lighter and more comfortable garments without any adverse effects. Reflecting on this insight, the author adapted breast/chest lymphoedema management by suggesting a change to lighter garments to patients who reported improved comfort, with no obvious negative impact on their lymphoedema. Within this article, the author gives a brief explanation of lymphatic mechanisms and factors relating to lymphoedema including signs and symptoms of breast oedema. There will be an exploration of the available treatments for lymphoedema along with treatment plans found to be effective by the author.
