A member asked:
I can feel my lymph nodes in my groin area. it really worries me even though my gyno did an ultrasound a couple months ago and said it looked normal. right side is a lot bigger and feels about 1.5cm. i keep touching it and worried its getting bigger?

Sounds normal: Lumps in the groin can be felt in most healthy persons. Usually they are lymph nodes that remain slightly swollen after a past infection. What you describe sounds normal, and with normal ultrasound as well, you really needne't worry. It's probably getting larger because you're further inflaming it by repeated touching and rubbing. Hands off!
