Re: Lymphatic system...
I would call the vet out at this point - I wouldn't mess with anything with the Lymph system - any problems and it spreads way too quick. I once had a spot on my check that went into the Lymphs on my face - got infected not good and looked like a hamster !!!...not a pretty site ! :lol:
Re: Lymphatic system...
Got a basic idea, it drains lymph fluid, other fluids and some fats from the system, it is a transport system that carries things in a similar way to the veins in the legs returning blood, it uses muscle contractions and is related to filled legs through lack of movement. The lymph glands are also related to hormones some producing/sensing them for negative feedback, not sure what or which though, would have to dig out my notes.
