🌿 Your Body’s Hidden Superhighway
🚦 What is it?
-
A network of thin tubes called lymph vessels running throughout your body.
-
Similar to blood circulation, but instead of blood, it carries lymph — a clear fluid packed with white blood cells (lymphocytes).
-
Lymph flows into the thoracic duct, which empties back into your bloodstream.
🫘 Lymph Nodes (Your Body’s Checkpoints)
Small bean-shaped glands that filter lymph and fight infection. An adult has between 400 and 800 lymph nodes in the body. You can feel some of them:
-
👩🦰 Neck
-
💪 Armpits
-
🦵 Groin
Others are hidden deeper in your:
-
Abdomen
-
Pelvis
-
Organs
🏰 Key Organs of the Lymphatic System
-
Spleen 🩸 → Filters lymph, removes worn-out red blood cells.
-
Thymus 🌱 → Trains T cells (most active in teens).
-
Tonsils & Adenoids 🛡️ → Guard the throat and nose against germs.
⚡ What Does It Do?
The lymphatic system has three superhero jobs:
-
💧 Drain fluid back into the bloodstream.
-
🧹 Filter lymph (clean out old cells).
-
🛡️ Fight infections with lymphocytes and macrophages.
🧬 Meet the Immune Warriors
-
B Cells 🧪 → Make antibodies to tag invaders. They also “remember” past infections for faster defense next time.
-
T Cells ⚔️ →
-
Helper T cells: Boost B cells and other immune fighters.
-
Killer T cells: Destroy infected cells to stop germs from spreading.
-
Together, B and T cells patrol your spleen and lymph nodes, ready to strike when danger appears.
✨ Think of the lymphatic system as your body’s silent guardian — draining, cleaning, and defending every single day.
