      My question is to anyone that has leg lymphedema….I've been having a huge problem with my heel on the side that my lymphedema is on. I have a doc appt. tomorrow to get it checked out but I'm just wondering if anyone has gotten heel spurs because of the lymphedema? If so… How do you fix it??? It hurts so bad and last night at work I pretty much had to walk on my tip-toes to keep the pressure off of my heel.

      Thanks for any information!!!
