Heat, fluid retention and heavy legs | What happens to our body?

Heat causes blood vessel dilation to release body heat, but this can hinder the return of blood from the lower limbs, causing fluid retention, edema and the sensation of heavy legs. Manual lymphatic drainage emerges as a specialized technique to mobilize fluids and relieve discomfort, being especially useful during pregnancy, in venous conditions and after aesthetic surgeries. The article argues that this technique should not only be a one-off response to heat, but a regular follow-up for those prone to edema, emphasizing the importance of prior professional assessment and individualized treatment adaptation.
