what is stress edema
Suddenly edema occurs...or in my case, a lot. So yes, stress can be a catalyst for edema, in fact it can be the catalyst for many things. When we think of stress we think of emotional stress like our boss pissing us off again. We don't realize that what we eat, feel (which makes up our emotional anatomy), the quality or quantity of our sleep, exercise or lack thereof can be stress too. And stress is the start of a whole doozie of problems.
