class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The meaning of Edema is \u201cswelling\u201d or \u201cto swell\u201d. By definition, edema is the retention of excess fluid in the body due to any cause. Although it can occur in any part of the body, edema is most commonly encountered in the legs, feet, and ankles. Older patients (65 years and above), pregnant females, are more prone to developing swelling due to fluid accumulation in various body parts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obvious signs of edema in the body include a sudden increase in the size of an area, stretched and shiny overlying skin, difficulty in daily activities due to abnormal swelling, mild discomfort in the affected area, and cough or breathing issues. The cause of edema may be lifestyle factors, or it may point to a more serious health problem. It is a symptom that shouldn\u2019t be disregarded. Long-standing and unresolved edema warrants a detailed check-up from an experienced healthcare provider.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_the_Causes_of_Edema_in_the_Body\"><\/span><b>What Are the Causes of Edema in the Body?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The classification of various edema causes is as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lifestyle_Choices\"><\/span><b>Lifestyle Choices<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daily activities and lifestyle choices like spending too much time sitting or standing, ingesting excessive amounts of salt, dehydration, and a sedentary routine lead to the development of edema. When edema develops due to standing or sitting for long hours on end, it is referred to as Dependent Edema.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Health_Issues\"><\/span><b>Health Issues<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abnormal fluid accumulation may be a sign of kidney issues, heart disease (Congestive heart failure), Liver pathologies (Cirrhosis), or poor venous circulation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hormonal\"><\/span><b>Hormonal\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pregnancy is one of the most common causes of developing edema. Apart from that, premenstrual syndrome or issues of the Thyroid gland can result in edema as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Medication\"><\/span><b>Medication<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain medications can cause fluid retention, such as Non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), Corticosteroids, Calcium-channel blockers, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Problems_with_the_Immune_System\"><\/span><b>Problems with the Immune System<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A weakened immune system can contribute to fluid retention and swelling. Conditions like infections, burns, allergic reactions, and traumatic injuries can cause fluid buildup in the affected area by disrupting its regulation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Is_Edema_Produced_in_the_Body\"><\/span><b>How Is Edema Produced in the Body?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Edema is an issue of the fluid regulation system. When there is an imbalance in this system, it impacts the movement of fluid between the blood vessels and the surrounding tissues, leading to its accumulation. The fluid regulation system in the body is controlled by a set of four forces, which are collectively called The Starling\u2019s Forces. These include the:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oncotic pressure in the capillaries<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interstitial hydrostatic pressure<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interstitial oncotic pressure<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An imbalance in Starling\u2019s forces leads to fluid filtration out of the capillaries and its accumulation in the interstitial space, leading to fluid retention or edema.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Many_Types_of_Edema_Are_There\"><\/span><b>How Many Types of Edema Are There?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Various edema types are classified based on location, underlying cause, and characteristics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"By_Location\"><\/span><b>By Location<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on location, edema is either confined to one location or impacts the entire body:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Generalized_Edema\"><\/span><b>Generalized Edema<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another term for generalized edema is Anasarca.
