Occasionally: During a state of infection or inflammation lymph nodes enlarge. Benign lymph nodes are usually oval and mobile (roll around under the skin). Other skin conditions such as epidermal inclusion cysts and dermatofibromas are connected closer to the outer skin. With multiple or enlarging nodes or masses, a physician should evaluate.

I've had feelable pea sized lymph nodes in my groin, neck, jaw and under my chin for 3 years now. They have never changed and I have no symtoms of lyphoma. Would this be something to worry about or is it just due to me being very slim? I'm 17 also?
