A member asked:

I've had one swollen inguinal lymph node for 3 weeks. no stds or other symptoms at all. i'm getting a biopsy. what is the probability of cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pretty low, but: it depends on size, consistency, lab results, age, and other factors. Overall, the vast majority of lymph node biopsies are benign.
