Q: Lymph Nodes Swollen?
asked by: Bubakanush on September 10th, 2007

Hi Im a 15 year old male in good health, but have diabetes. Anyway, about 2-3 months ago i noticed in my right groin i have 2 swollen lymph nodes. Theyre not too big but noticeable. There are also 3 in my neck that I can feel but I wouldnt really consider them very swollen. They are pretty small and I doubt could be noticed without specifically looking for them. Now the swelling in my groin hasn't gotten any bigger since I discovered it, I actually think lately they might be going down a little bit, but still are noticeable. I haven't really had any illnesses lately, other than some stomach problems I've had for years.
I don't have any symptoms of lymphoma- no fever, nightsweats, weight loss, or tiredness/lack of energy.

I've read on sites that if the lymph nodes are in the groin and neck/under chin, and you are a young adult(like me) its normal for them to appear swollen? I dont know what to think. Ive been a little worried about it. Also Ive heard that the size of them doesnt always return to normal after an infection, so maybe that's just the normal size of them.

Well anyway thanks for any responses.
