Yes, it is masculine.

For those unfamiliar with lymphedema:

linfedema

Linfedema

I cannot find it in RAE but it is in wikipedia and elsewhere on the internet. The English, of course, would be lymphedema, but I am not sure if there are other, more preferable terms to a native Spanish speaker.

I don't think it is a word.
