Active tumor growth can block lymphatic flow, causing a worsening of lymphedema or other forms of swelling. Patients with a sudden onset of swelling/redness/pain (lymphangitis) or evidence of skin infection (cellulitis) in the affected limb should immediately discontinue treatment until the infection subsides.
