Published by BLS on its YouTube channel:
The British Lymphology Society exists to preserve and protect good health of people living with lymphoedema / chronic oedema. Lymphoedema occurs when the lymphatic drainage system fails; chronic oedema is indicative of failure of lymphatic drainage. Both of these terms are used interchangeably to emphasise the need to manage both the initial cause of the chronic oedema and the lymphatic failure concurrently.

What is lymphoedema? A deep dive…
Courtesy of our resident physio, Élodie:
A deep dive into the plumbing of your body. We hope to provide alternative language versions, but if you are a tech-whizz, or know one, you may be able to persuade your smart phone to provide a simultaneous translation for yourself. If you do share how you did it with your friends here in the comments.
This video is included in Élodie’s Lymphobook – do have a closer look.
