     Extractions: CHINESE HERBS FOR LYMPHEDEMA Exploring the Principles of Treating Phlegm-Damp Accumulation by Subhuti Dharmananda, Ph.D., Director, Institute for Traditional Medicine, Portland, Oregon The lymphatic system runs throughout the body. Unlike the system of vessels that transports the blood, the lymphatic system lacks independent musculature to pump the lymph through the body. Instead, the lymphatic flow occurs secondarily to the pumping action in nearby blood vessels (primarily the veins) and as a simple result of physical movements of the body. Lymph gains its contents from the blood, and the lymph vessels (which are larger than capillaries but much smaller than the smallest veins) drain the majority of their contents back into the blood stream via the thoracic duct at the base of the neck. There are small, bean-shaped lymph nodes laced along the lymphatic vessels, but the major clusters are in the neck, armpits, abdomen, and groin. During an infection, it is common for the lymph nodes to become enlarged, sometimes noticeably so, as they fill with immune cells and the debris from immune attack. Lymphedema can also occur as the result of injuries as well as from any disease process that damages or obstructs the lymph nodes (e.g., lymphedema has been noted in rare cases with sarcoidosis and Kaposi's sarcoma). In addition, lymphedema of the legs occurs in elderly persons suffering from chronic venous insufficiency, since the pumping of blood through the veins contributes to the movement of lymph (4). Lymphedema is more common in women than in men, and leg edema is more common with aging.
