Hello I have Lymphedema of the neck amd face following radiation/chemo for base of tongue cancer. Has anyone else experienced this? What did you do?
I get regular massage on it but I need more.
Also a very dry mouth and phlemn in the throat. Help?

@lilypilly, did the machine help you at all? They say no news is good news.
@thomason I have been using it for 2 days now. Even though the swelling doesn't look reduced, it is not as hard.
Thank you for checking in.
I used a Flexitouch Plus to reduce and manage the lymphedema from the treatments. It worked quite well for me. Good luck as you move forward.
