What is the lymphoedema of Florencia Kirchner?

Cristina Kirchner explained that the illness of her daughter Florencia and for which she is treated medically in Cuba is lymphedema.

Lymphedema is generated when an obstruction occurs in the lymphatic system. This is responsible for emptying the lymph, a liquid that contains microorganisms and waste.

If the lymphatic system is clogged, the fluid builds up and generates edema that now threatens the health of Florencia Kirchner.
