How is oedema caused?
Oedema is the condition characterized by an excess of watery fluid collecting in the cavities or tissues of the body.
When the rate of lymph formation exceeds due to the increase in permeability of capillary walls than the rate of its return to blood, it results in accumulation of lymph around the cells. This causes swelling of tissues or organs called oedema.
