The National Lymphedema Network (NLN) has released an updated position statement, Evidence-Based Practices for Lymphedema Risk Reduction (March 2026), reflecting the latest research on minimizing lymphedema risk for those who've experienced lymph node injury as well as guidance for those managing a current diagnosis. The statement covers key topics including prospective screening schedules, medical procedures on the at-risk or affected limb, infection and skin care, air travel, body weight, exercise, compression garments, and emerging areas like preventive lymphatic surgery and phlebolymphedema. At SDK Therapy, we rely on guidelines like these to inform the care and education we provide our patients.
