Question 1

can fungal rash on testicles lead to swollen groin nodes?

Accepted Answer

Not usually: You could have a bacterial infection which can occur with fungus.  Better have it looked at since that is not the norm.

Question 2

after new partner i've had frequent herpes prodrome symptoms but never lesions,sores,etc. swollen groin nodes, itch, tingles, sore back. what to do?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can check: If a patient sees no lesions, it is hard to guess whether or not any symptoms are from herpes. Her doctor can help, perhaps by doing blood tests for herpes antibodies. If symptoms are happening often, perhaps a trial of preventive medication can be done, if the blood antibodies are positive for herpes. The partner's antibodies should be checked too, because one can only catch herpes from a person.

Question 5

i have a swollen groin lymph node, please help!?

Accepted Answer

Monitoring Centers: 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.  They enlarge in response to the inflammation they create when they react.  They shrink when all is well.

Question 6

swollen groin lymph node for around 6 weeks?around 1cm hard and fixed. 23 year old female. dr originally thought shaving but this has been stopped ?

Accepted Answer

Reevaluate: Any leg or foot infection? Moles,?
Any pelvic issues?
Lymphadenopathy can reflect inflammation, local skin infection, or tumors, or lymphatic disease.
May need biopsy if persistent or more!

Question 7

boil on clitorous and swollen groin lymph nodes what could this mean?

Accepted Answer

Serious infection.: It's better let your doc taking care of it. I might be a serious infection, std included, causing it.

Question 8

i have a hard-ish swollen groin lymph node. ive had it for a couple months now. its about the size of a pea. i had a urine test and ultrasound came back clear. what could be causing it? its not tender but it does cause little cramps here and there?

Accepted Answer

: Inguinal (thigh fold) masses can be enlarged lymph nodes from skin infection (from entire lower half of the body) or an STD (like syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, or herpes). They can also be benign masses (epidermal cysts or lipomas) or malignant tumors (lymphoma). A normal ultrasound and urine result is reassuring; STDs can be checked with blood tests. Surveillance is necessary to see resolution

Question 9

i broke two toes a month ago, didn't break skin open though. could it still be a cause of swollen groin lymph nodes?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: I do not believe the swelling is due to the fractured toes. You need to have checked asap.

Question 10

why wont my swollen groin lymph node go down?
i have had a swollen lymph node in my groin now for a few months. i do not appear to have an infection!

Accepted Answer

Scarring: The node may be scarred and may take longer than a few months to shrink in size. 
You may feel the node every couple of weeks, if the lymph gland doubles in size, becomes painful, ulcerates, or other nodes become enlarged, or you develop fever, you should see a doctor.
