Most certainly it does, Emma

The article here will give you some idea about it. And Lymphoedema, in
addition to surgery and radiotherapy can also be caused by trauma, eg. a
fall from ones bike.

The slant of this article is toward women with breast cancer, but
its wisdom is no less valid. Lymphoedema (basically the swelling of the
glands from any liquid in the lymph glands) is Lymphoedema no matter how
it is caused.
