A member asked:
Could cervical lymph nodes be normaly palpable in children under 2 years?!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: I routinely detect them on regular physical exams.Most will be less than a cm in size and move some. If there is any nearby bug bites, skin irritation, or recent throat infection; i will find them a bit larger.
