Lymph, lymph nodes, & lymphatic system | Life processes | Biology | Khan Academy

Lymph is the blood plasma that oozes out of the holes in the blood capillaries. The lymph vessels clear out this lymph and recirculate it back into the bloodstream. The lymph nodes contain WBCs that help provides immunity.

I am a male 32 that has had lymphedema for over 14 years now due to a sports injury during high school. I just wear compression stockings and during that time that's all the doctor could recommend and said I would deal with it for the rest of my life. This topic is so under researched and I thank you so much for this video. You explain things very well and help me understand the lymphatic system. I am on my journey to recovery still but I have hope that my leg will get better. I am still grateful I can walk, that has kept me motivated all these years. Being grateful for what I can still do instead of focusing on what I cannot do.

[@user-lb3ex6yh9u]

Damn that's sad . An injury during high school cost something worth 14 years of your life?! I am sorry for it but at the same time I appreciate your outlook towards it. Also it's true that it is a under researched topic. In fact a lot things are under researched. Once some are done, there would be no limits on how easy human life could become.
