AB Impairments  of  the  lymphatic  system  can  lead  to  lymphatic  insufficiencies  that  can  result  in  significant  physical  impairments  and  subsequent  loss  of  function  of  either  the  upper  or  lower  extremities.  Disturbances  in  structure  or  function  can  lead  to  accumulation  of  lymphatic  fluids  in  the  tissue  of  the  body  that  affect  the  physiological  health  of  the  tissue,  impair  joint  mobility,  and  impact  daily  functioning.  Lymphatic  dysfunction  can  be  a  result  of  a  congenital  or  hereditary  abnormality  or  can  be  caused  by  trauma,  infection,  or  treatment  for  a  cancer.
