Question: How can I lessen weeping adema?
Is there something that I can buy, like "pads" to absorb the water on my leg? I have gone through so many hand towels for this purpose already.

Brief Answer:
Buy gauses that have gel to absorb big amounts of fluids

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank you for using HCM to post your question.
I read it carefully and I understand your concern.

You can find in the local pharmacy absorbing gauses which are with gel and are made to absorb big amounts of liquids.

Putting gauses on though wont eliminate the problem, because it will continue weeping. Follow your doctor's advices to know strategies on how to treat the cause of it. He knows your health better and knows how to help you.

Let me know if you have other questions or concerns.

Regards,
Dr.Papaqako
