A member asked:

I have a swollen lymph node in my left armpit, i then saw i had a mole which is black always that way. could they be connected. just got over flu.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You may need a check: A mole can actually be a melanoma. In that case the swollen lymph node may be related to a melanoma. So you should get your self examined by your doctor soon especially if the lymph node is growing in size and is bigger than the size of a marble.
