Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The lymphatic system clears away infection and keeps your body fluids in balance. If it’s not working properly, fluid builds in your tissues and causes swelling, called lymphedema.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lymphoedema is the swelling that occurs when the lymph nodes or vessels that make up the lymphatic system become blocked or damaged. This damage or blockage causes a build-up of fluid in the body’s soft tissues. The lymphatic system is part of the body’s immune system.

Detailed explanation-3: -If infection is the cause of your swollen lymph nodes and isn’t treated, an abscess may form. Abscesses are localized collections of pus caused by infections. Pus contains fluid, white blood cells, dead tissue, and bacteria or other invaders. An abscess may require drainage and antibiotic treatment.
