The most important tasks of the lymphatic system are:
- Fight infections
- Clean out damaged dead cells, tumor cells, lactic acid, bacteria and other slag products
- Transport the lymph from the tissue fluid to the blood
A poor lymphatic system can result in
- Increased volume (edema) in certain body parts
- Irritation of tissues and an inflammatory reaction may occur which in turn may cause pain (eg lymphangitis)
- The immune system can weaken and you become more susceptible to diseases
