A member asked:
Are there any lymph nodes in the outside area of the hip near skin surface. i noticed avery small lump approx 1/8" in diameter?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: lymph nodes can be felt in groin along hip line especially in thinner people. That size you are describing is relatively small and likely not a concern... Next visit to a doctor mention it to them if persists.
