Important Facts to Know about Surgery Recovery, Edema, and Leg Pain

Edema pain is created by the swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body’s tissues. Although edema can affect any part of your body, you may notice it more in your hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs.

Doctors have been recommending leg elevation for generations. When your legs are elevated the hydrostatic pressure decreases and the net movement of fluid goes back to the capillaries that allows fluid to be reabsorbed. We can use gravity to increase venous flow back to the heart, lower venous pressure and that lessens pain.

You can see from the photo below, the MyComfortMD® Edema Reduction Leg Elevator addresses the important attributes of proper leg elevation.

Your legs need to be above your heart, to lower the hydrostatic pressure in your legs.
Your thighs should be tilted about 40 degrees. A higher angle will cause the femoral vein to kink, obstructing blood flow further.
Your knees should have a bend to provide a more comfortable position. Bent knees will relax your tendons.
You do not want your knees in a straight position, as this could cause kinking of your veins against your bones that could cause blood flow obstruction pain.
The lower leg (knee to ankle) needs to be tilted on a ramp to allow gravity to help with blood flow.
Simultaneous leg elevation reduces pressure on the lower back while sitting down.
