Other Symptoms Linked to JVD
Depending on the cause, JVD may appear with:
“Swelling, especially in the lower extremities or abdomen”
Fatigue, confusion, cough, nausea
Nighttime urination, appetite loss
“Unpredicted weight gain” and bloating
How It’s Treated
JVD itself isn’t dangerous, but its cause may be. “Treating the underlying cause will help ease this symptom or make it stop entirely.” Treatment may include medications, lifestyle changes, or surgery—depending on the condition.
Home Care Advice
Don’t try to manage JVD at home. “It takes a trained healthcare provider to examine it and determine what’s causing it.” Self-treatment can delay care for life-threatening conditions.
