Herbal Remedies for Edema

Edema is abnormal accumulation of fluid in the tissues, often with swelling. Impaired circulation in the venous system can lead to 'leaking' of fluid into interstitial (inter-cellular) spaces, which can result in edema.

An herbal treatment program can include venous tonics and aquaretics.
