A member asked:
I feel painful aches where my lymph nodes are in my arms, behind my knees and the groin area. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Normal lymph nodes do not hurt. If they become painful or enlarged, especially if it happens in more than one location, a doctor's evaluation is needed. A primary care doctor is the person to begin with, and he can refer to specialists if needed.
