Information
General information about lymphs on the knee
The lymphatic system plays an important role in the human body by removing excess fluids from tissues and supporting the immune system. On the knee there are numerous lymphatic vessels and nodes that provide the drainage of lymph fluid. If this outflow is disturbed, for example due to injuries, operations or chronic diseases, lymphoedema may occur. These manifest themselves in swelling, tension and pain in the knee area.
