Answer 1

Edema is swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body's tissues. Although edema can affect any part of your body, it's most commonly noticed in your hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs.

Edema can be the result of underlying medical conditions, certain medications or pregnancy.

So far as I could gather the symptoms of edema are-

Signs and symptoms of edema include:

    * Swelling or puffiness of the tissue under your skin (subcutaneous tissue)

    * Stretched or shiny skin

    * Skin that retains a dimple after being pressed for several seconds

    * Increased abdominal size-
