A member asked:
If a lymph node is the size of golf ball or a tad bit smaller in the groin, does that mean it's lymphoma?'
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Enlarged node: I would not jump to that conclusion. This does need evaluation. Biopsy, imaging, blood tests, physical examination and history are used to make that type of diagnosis.
