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.
These glands are important to your bodyâs immune system. They produce blood cells that help your body fight infections. A blockage in the lymphatic system causes tissues to become swollen with lymphatic fluid. This is called lymphedema. It results in swelling in your arms or legs. You can be born with a lymphatic blockage that causes lymphedema (called primary lymphedema) or you can develop lymphedema as a secondary condition.
