How is edema caused by fluid overload?

Edema is not so much about fluid overload in the body than a

specific area getting, or accumulating, more than other areas. The

fluid in our bodies is managed by the lymphatic system, and if it

is blocked, or perhaps overloaded in a specific part of the body,

then edema, or swelling of fluid, develops.
