are there lymph nodes in your feet?

Yes, nearby: Lymphatic system absorbs/carries things too big to go into the arteries/veins like bacteria eaten by white cells and digested food. Lymph nodes "taste" the lymph for anything bad  like bacteria/viruses/cancers, etc. When it detects a problem, it alerts the immune system and your body reacts.

Accepted Answer

: The stages of cancer are statistical predictors of progress/treatments and outcomes of points in time where anatomic changes are determined to be specific to statistically verifiable disease entities.  There are always variations in any predictive model, including side effects of treatment modalities.  The stages enable general predictions of disease evolution for physicians and patients.
