Detailed explanation-1: -Lymphedema is swelling due to build-up of lymph fluid in the body. Lymph nodes act like a drain in your sink. If the drain is clogged, the fluid cannot drain. It usually happens in the arms or legs, but can occur in other parts of the body.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cells may literally drown or get stagnant in the accumulated fluid, becoming breeding grounds for infection. Even a tiny amount of fluid accumulated over a short period of time could cause significant edema and the body to swell up like a balloon, destroying tissues and resulting in tissue death.
