9. Blisters

Blisters and other excess skin projections can form during stage three of lymphedema. After all this time, the extra fluid is still trying to filter out of the body. Since the lymph vessels are blocked, blisters form as the body’s attempt to contain the fluid. While there is no cure for lymphedema, your doctor can help keep the symptoms at bay and halt the progression of the disease.
