Lymph.
The lymph system, including lymph nodes and lymph vessels.
The lymph capillary in the right arm channels excess fluid from plasma. This fluid flows in the direction of the lymph nodes in the axilla through larger lymphatic vessels where the fluid becomes lymph.
The lymphatic system removes excess fluid from tissues. The lymph system is a network of organs, lymph nodes, lymph ducts, and lymph vessels that make and move lymph from tissues to the bloodstream. The lymph system is a major part of the body's immune system.
They don't produce anything. Lymph nodes take excess fluid out of your body, which are extracted from your lymph nodes and travel through your lymph vessels. Then, the body gets rid of this fluid. (you can just guess that part)

Lymph from the lymphatic system
In Lymphoedema, the lymph channels become blocked, possibly due to a tumour, or because surgery, burns or radiotherapy has caused damage. This means the lymph fluid cannot pass along the lymph vessel. Excess tissue fluid builds up and is unable to drain away through the lymph vessels as it normally would. This causes fluid to leak out from your skin.
The lymphatic system, or the lymph system, they're the same thing.
Fluids and particles absorbed into lymph capillaries are called lymph.
Afferent lymphaticvesselthe only one that drain the excess fluid from the body to the lymph node. So, it's the smallest lymphatic structure.
during the exchange of gases in the tissues , some colorless fluid oozes out of the capillaries and fills the inter cellular spaces . this fluid is called interstitial or tissue fluid. It is the medium through which the exchange of gasses and food takes place. now some of this fluid enters the blind lymphatic capillary. as it has entered the lymph vessel then this fluid is now called lymph. the excess tissue fluid is returned back to the blood by this lymphatic system.
