Lymph nodes? PLEASE answer?

Question

I am 14 years old. I can feel the lymph nodes in my arm pit and they are both smaller than 1.5cm in diameter. In my groin area i have 2 lymph nodes that are 2cm in diameter...i am wondering if this is normal. Does this sizes mean that i have something wrong with me or can some people feel their lymph nodes in these areas? Please help i am worried...thanks :)

Answer 1

It is normal for lymph nodes to protrude a little, I can feel mine and my doctor said it was normal and that I am okay, I doubt there is anything wrong, if you aren't experiencing any pain then there is nothing to worry about.  But if your anxiety persists, go see a doctor just for the sake of getting the anxiety off of your mind, he may order a blood test to test for infections.  

Answer 2

u should go see your doctor... worst case scenario though is lymphoma
