I have painful swollen lymph nodes in groin please help
hello first of all please do not freak out if we have adequate information it would be easy to figure out the cause for such groin node enlargement it would have been a little more informative if you could mention the size of the node that you could feel whether on single or both sides whether it is a single node or multiple if multiple whether they could be felt discreetly or they are stuck together also if you had any history of fever recently that could have given some idea about the nature of these groin nodal swelling the most common causes for the enlargement of the groin nodes is any infection or inflammation in the sites they drain the lymph fluid which includes the genital area including the lower third of vagina and legs so I would like to know if there is any genital infection or ulcers or any infection or wound in your legs many times in sexually active individuals it could represent a presentation of sexually transmitted infections like chancroids syphilis or sometimes in herpes too please get back to me with details so that appropriate cause can be identified and treated appropriately
