Hey, is it normal to be able to feel nodes when there not enlarged? i can feel 2 nodes in my neck and groin and i'm also very slim and only 16. ive been told it's normal to feel them there but can i always feel them there even with no infection?

You may feel the nodes every couple of weeks, if any of the lymph glands doubles in size, becomes painful, ulcerates, or other nodes become enlarged, or you develop fever, or lose weight, you should see a doctor. Wish you good health!
