A member asked:

Can lymph nodes become swollen or larger if you keep touching them few times a day? mine are swollen, examined by doc. but i'm still worried. what 2do

Educate yourself: Almost all young men have lymph nodes that they can find and feel. If they're not hard-rubber-hard, fixed to the surrounding structures, growing preposterously, or super-painful, ignore them. Your best friends have them too. Life at your age is tough enough without worrying about the normally-palpable lymph nodes in your neck being hodgkin's -- if one of them it, it'll be obvious enough.
