As the goal of our social responsibility project, we created awareness of lymphedema in operated breast cancer patients. We gave patients information about what lymphedema is, the mechanism of lymphedema formation and how to prevent it. We taught patients how to provide relief using massage techniques on the arm with lymphedema.
