About this study

Lymphedema is a chronic condition that negatively affects patients' quality of life and lower extremity functions, causing swelling and a feeling of heaviness in the extremity, as well as posing an economic burden. The gold standard in lymphedema treatment is complex decongestive therapy.Manual lymphatic drainage, skin care, the use of compression garments, and home exercise programs play an important role. Exercise therapies lead to a reduction in volume and an improvement in functionality and quality of life in patients with lymphedema. However, studies on this subject have mostly focused on upper extremity lymphedema. This study aims to compare the effects of a home exercise program and hydrotherapy combined with a home exercise program on quality of life, lower extremity functionality, exercise capacity, and edema severity in patients with unilateral lower extremity lymphedema
