Redness

i have had arm Lymphoedema for about 10. Years following radiotherapy.

Does anyone else find stress makes their limb larger? I have been under extra stress this last week and the top of my compression sleeve seems tighter and hurts in that area. The little rubber grip spots leave redder marks and last night i began my emergency antibiotics as the area seemed much redder than usual.would love to hear from others if this has happened to them
