Healthy legs pave the way to a healthy life. If your legs are holding you back due to discomfort, swelling, or even unsightly veins, Crosswalk Clinic can help. We specialize in a variety of treatments for veins, lymphedema, and lipedema in Spokane, Washington.
At Crosswalk Clinic we don’t just specialize in one problem that can affect your legs, we specialize in getting to the root cause or causes of the problem and treating the whole person. We can treat your circulation problem, the lymphedema or lipedema problem – all in one place, with one team of providers who know you. What we won’t do is treat your veins, send you somewhere else for your swelling, and somewhere else for your wound care. We are going to take care of your leg, period.
When your leg veins aren’t working properly, there will be a buildup of pressure in them. Over time this can result in leg swelling, various symptoms including heavy or tired legs, pain, itching, muscle cramps, or restless legs. Your legs may look normal or they may be discolored (darkened skin near the ankles), develop rashes, spider veins, varicose veins, or in some cases even skin ulcers. If any of these describe your legs, we can help.
There are many causes of lymphedema, the one thing they have in common is a dysfunction of the lymphatic circulatory system. When it’s not functioning properly swelling will almost always develop. It usually begins as mild but can progress to severe edema that doesn’t resolve with elevating the legs. Lymphedema also affects the immune system and can result in severe deformity and disability. We’d like to help well before it gets to that stage, but we can help at any stage.
Lipedema is a genetic condition that occurs almost exclusively in women. It is associated with hormone changes and described as an abnormal fat distribution in the legs. It usually occurs in both legs and can affect the hips, thighs, calves, and ankles or a combination of these; in some cases it may also affect the arms. Interestingly, it rarely affects the feet. If you’ve seen a woman who wears a size small shirt and an XXL in pants, you may have seen someone with lipedema. It often causes pain, pronounced tenderness, fat nodules, easy bruising, and may be accompanied by gastric issues. If this sounds like you, we can help.
The unique thing about Crosswalk is that we provide nearly any leg treatment you could need – all under one roof. There’s no run-around, new referrals, new specialists, and multiple appointments at various specialty clinics for the different types of treatments you require; for example, if you have a venous leg ulcer – we will provide all aspects of care for this – you won’t need a referral for a wound care clinic, a lymphedema therapist at a physical therapy clinic, and a clinician to treat your vein disease at yet another location. It’s simple – we take care of it all; we take care of you. In the event that your medical needs are outside of what we offer, we will be happy to refer you to a trusted specialist in your area (for example, orthopedic or sports medicine for knee or hip pain).
