The human lymphatic system plays a crucial role in maintaining internal balance by transporting excess fluid, filtering harmful substances and supporting immune responses. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic network does not rely on a central pump; instead it depends on muscle movement and pressure changes to propel lymph throughout the body. Lymph nodes, positioned strategically along lymphatic vessels, act as biological checkpoints where pathogens are identified and neutralised. Disruptions in this system can lead to a condition known as lymphoedema, characterised by abnormal fluid accumulation and persistent swelling, usually in the limbs. Left unmanaged, lymphoedema may impair mobility and increase susceptibility to infections. Early diagnosis is therefore essential, as timely intervention can significantly slow the progression of symptoms. Health experts emphasise that regular physical activity, adequate hydration and proper limb care all contribute to a healthier lymphatic function. Additionally, avoiding tight clothing, which may restrict lymph flow, helps maintain natural circulation. As awareness grows, individuals are encouraged to monitor changes in their body and seek guidance whenever swelling or discomfort persists.33:T55d,Directions (Qs. 96-100): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
