Why can you have Edema after an IV?
You give IV fluid to the patient. Generally there are two types of fluids. IV normal saline or Ringer's lactate and 5 % dextrose. All of them have same osmotic pressure as the body fluid has got. But the dextrose is rapidly used by body to give you plane water. So the normal saline and Ringer's lactate solution is distributed across the extracellular compartment. Dextrose, that means plane water is distributed across the whole body fluid. Normal adult has got 14 liters of extracellular fluid and 28 liters of fluid inside the cells. You have the fluid in the body till kidneys excrete the same. Respective fluid spreads across the respective cellular compartment. It gives you edema.
