Lymph node in neck, 2 in right armpit, 1in groin. feel perfectly fine! getting a biopsy on groin node, i'm 19, is it lymphoma? would it show in biopsy

Lymph nodes: Lymph nodes enlarge in fighting infection and more likely that is what is happening versus lymphoma. Biopsy is a good idea to prove it is nothing bad.

Biopsy should: Yes, the biopsy would show if it was lymphoma. Many things can cause adenopathy, not just lymphoma. Hope all goes well.

Biopsy is appropriat: you definitely need to have a biopsy to see what is causing your lymph nodes to be swollen. It could simply be an infection like epstein barr virus but lymphoma needs to be ruled out

?lymphoma: Could be, but wait on biopsy results - which will likely show whether there is a malignancy present...then proceed as your Dr directs.

It might: for an individual who is sexually active, lymph nodes in the groin can be enlarged for many reasons. Enlarged nodes in the neck, armpit, other sites, generally are the preferred sites for biopsy because they are less affected by sexual contact. taking a biopsy from a single site may show nothing; usually several sites are necessary for confirmation.

LN: Hi, please don't make any assumption now, wait for the biopsy results. There are multiple other reasons for a swollen lymph node. Like infection, or anything which could cause inflammation.the size of LN, being tender or not, growing in size or not, it moves easily or fixed are the factors that doctors look to determine the need for further work up. Good luck.
