It is for this reason why women who underwent these surgeries especially those that involved lymph tissue removal are advised to wear lymphedema arm sleeves. These therapeutic garments help in promoting good lymph flow and hence, help in preventing arm swelling. Therapeutic compression garments such as lymphedema arm sleeves are useful for individuals suffering from obstructed lymphatic system. These arm sleeves help reduce toxin buildup as the added pressure they create on the area keeps the lymph in moving in the right direction.
