Q. What is a lympho?
Doctor Answer is medically reviewed by SecondMedic medical review team.
Lymph is a clear, colorless fluid that circulates throughout the lymphatic system in the human body. This system is a part of the immune system and helps maintain fluid balance, remove waste products, and fight infections. Lymph contains white blood cells, which are crucial for immune responses, and it plays a vital role in transporting nutrients, oxygen, and hormones to cells while removing waste products and toxins from them. The lymphatic system includes lymph nodes, lymph vessels, tonsils, adenoids, spleen, and thymus, all working together to support the body's immune functions and overall health.
