Edema i need any health care professional? |
What is the difference between non-pitting edema and pitting edema??? okay i understand the difference but what is the underlying factor for the difference Some phenomena may distinguish different causes of peripheral edema. Most peripheral edema is pitting edema - pressing down will lead to a shift in the interstitial fluid and the formation of a small pit that resolves over seconds. Non-pitting edema may reflect lymphedema, a form of edema that develops when the lymph vessels are obstructed, or myxedema, which occurs in hypothyroidism. pitting edema is where if u were to push ur fingers into an area of edema if ur fingerprints stay there for a min (leave an indentation) |
