Edema
Edema is the swelling of the feet and hands and is a condition in which fluid builds up in your bodies tissue. This condition may be caused by colorectal cancer, and can affect your feet, ankles, legs, arms, hands, face, or belly. Take note also of your skin — if it is puffy, shiny, or if it looks slightly dented after being pressed might mean that you have edema. It often goes hand in hand with shortness of breath and an irregular heartbeat. The swelling in your extremities is sometimes due to your body’s inability to pass toxic material due to tumors and blockage.
