    swelling caused by lymph fluid accumulation due to lymphatic system issues

    Lymphedema, also known as lymphatic edema, is a condition characterized by the swelling of body tissues due to the accumulation of lymph fluid, often occurring in the arms or legs. This can result from damage to or removal of lymph nodes, commonly due to cancer treatment, infection, or genetic factors, leading to impaired lymphatic drainage and chronic swelling.
