If your dog goes on medication for seizures, there is a high likelihood of weight gain. Because of this, many veterinarians recommend specific diet plans. Forego salty treats. Foods and treats with a lot of salt can actually cause your dog to have a seizure if they are on potassium bromide, so cut them out of the diet.
What is Lymphedema? 1  Lymphedema is swelling in one or more of the arms or legs that arises due to damage or poor function of the lymphatic system.  The lymphatic system is a network of vessels that course throughout the body to collect excess fluid as well as waste products.
Lymphedema, or lymphatic obstruction, is a long-term condition where excess fluid collects in tissues causing swelling (edema). The lymphatic system is a part of the circulatory system and vital for immune function. Lymphedema is caused by a blockage of this system. Lymphedema commonly affects one of the arms or legs. In some cases, both arms or both legs may be affected. Some patients might experience swelling in the head, genitals, or chest. Lymphedema is incurable, but with the right treatment, it can be controlled.
