Medical - Medical (general)
English term or phrase: discrete oedema
No real context to give. It's in a list of side effects for a certain drug.
Please note that I do know what oedema / edema is and I also know what the dictionary definition of discrete is. I'm looking for an answer from someone who's heard this combination before or who can find evidence to support their suggestion.

Thanks.

Asker: תודה. אז אם לא רשום אזור אני כותב "בצקת ממוקמת"?

neutral  Lirka: I think it's more than just 'localized'. I think we're talking about degree here. I'd call it 'mild edema'
