This system carries lymph fluid, nutrients, and waste material between the body tissues and the bloodstream.

Instead, the cancer cells block the lymph vessels that normally keep lymph fluid moving in the breast.

However, exercise also increases blood flow to the muscles being used, which can increase the amount of lymph fluid present.

It helps to get the lymph fluid - a vital part of the body's waste disposal system - flowing.

Since lymph fluid absorbs the chemicals it fights this is highly dangerous.

The lymph fluid has been found to move through a lymph capillary of the skin at approximately 0.0000097 m/s.

Elevating an arm or leg that has swelling can help ease the drainage of lymph fluid from the affected limb.

The use of muscles during exercise naturally helps lymph fluid to circulate, which can reduce swelling.

Lymphedema is the chronic pooling of lymph fluid in the tissue.

The cancer cells block the lymph fluid in the breast tissue and usually don't form lumps.
