Does messing with lymphnodes after they have gone down keep them from going completely away im hi anxiety touching all the time already seen two docs?

Immune Health: Having lymph nodes react and swell and then diminish in size is a sign of immune health. It is not a sign of illness, trouble, cancer or anything you should allow your anxiety to become obsessed about. A reactive lymph system is a healthy lymph system. Our bodies are always fighting off foreign invaders, even when we do not feel ill.
