A member asked:
Son diagnosed with ulcerative colitis a year ago. now swollen lymph node groin area. should this be concerning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: This is a common area for nodes to enlarge because it drains from some fairly dirty sites. If you have no other symptoms would not be overly concerned, but it never hurts to discuss this with the doctor managing your UC.
