A member asked:
Will underarmour be using for lymphedema stage 1?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not quite effective: Underarmour are nice athletic garment that provide some compression. They dont quite provide enough compression to control even early lymphedema . They would be of some help but they would not be of sufficient compression to be completely effective. Good thinking though.
