    Abstract:
    The efficacy of thermal nitrogen-radon water and local pneumocompression was studied in 66 patients with lymphedema of the lower limbs stage I-II receiving treatment in Belokurikha resort. The response of 10-48-month duration was achieved in 63 (95.5%) of those treated. The course of radon baths only was less effective.
