A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lymph nodes: They are still called lymph nodes. I assume your are speaking about inguinal lymph nodes present in the groin area as one cannot feel abdominal nodes. There are numerous causes, most commonly infection, inflammation or even tumors. Have a doctor take a look.
