How to check your Lymph Nodes

Introduction

You have been diagnosed with a skin cancer that on occasions can spread into the lymphatic system. That is why, as part of your examination, your nodes are examined by your doctor or specialist nurse at your follow-up appointments. The lymph nodes examined depend on the location of your skin cancer, eg: if your skin cancer was on your leg then the lymph nodes in your inguinal area (groin) will be felt or if on your face then the nodes in your head and neck would be examined. The aim is to detect any enlargement of the lymph nodes and undertake investigations at an early stage. Some people express a wish to check their own lymph nodes between clinic appointments. This is why you have been given this information. Your doctor or nurse will show you how and which lymph nodes to check. 

The Lymphatic System

This system consists of lymphatic vessels and tissue. Lymph is a fluid that contains proteins and waste materials, which is collected from around the cells in the body, eventually draining into larger vessels.   

Lymphatic vessels

One way of describing this is to imagine a river that starts as a small stream, which then weaves its way between the cells and small blood vessels of the body’s connective tissue.  On its journey more tissue and waste material is collected. The fluid (lymph) that accumulates firstly drains into larger lymph vessels, then into ducts in the neck, before emptying into the blood stream. 

Lymphatic tissue

Lymph nodes are small oval clumps of lymphatic tissue found at intervals along the vessels. They are grouped like “beads on a string” both deep in the body and near the surface (see previous diagram). These lymph nodes filter out harmful organisms and cells from the lymphatic fluid before it is returned to the blood stream. Lymph nodes can only be felt in the areas listed: 

• head and neck 
• arms 
• axilla (armpits) 
• inguinal area (groin)
• back of knees 

Usually lymph nodes are not enlarged and thus not able to be felt, but if you have previously had an infection (such as tonsillitis) you may have noticed and felt lymph nodes becoming enlarged, painful and tender.  Lymph nodes can also become enlarged due to cancer cells lodging in them. Checking your lymph nodes once a month is sufficient and this can be done at the same time as you check your skin for any changing moles. Checking them more often may result indifficulty noticing any change. 

Do not panic if you feel a lymph node as it may well be due to an infection, but if it has not gone away in a week contact your doctor or specialist nurse. 

How to Check Lymph Nodes in the Head and Neck

• With your fingertips, in a gentle circular motion feel the lymph nodes shown. 
• Start with the nodes in front of the ear (1) then follow in order finishing just above the collar bone (10)
• Always check your nodes in this order. 
• Check both sides for comparison. If you have an enlarged lymph node it may feel like a swelling the size of a pea, sometimes they can be larger. 

When feeling the nodes in your neck (marked 8): 

• Tilt your head towards the side you are examining, this helps to relax the muscle. 
• Now press your fingers under the muscle.  

When checking the lymph nodes above the collar bone: 

• Hunch your shoulders and bring your elbows forward to relax the skin. 
• Now feel above the collar bone (marked 10).

How to Check Lymph Nodes in the Armpit

Diagram how to check the lymph nodes in your armpitRemove all clothing down to the waist to get easy access to the armpits. 

• Sit in a comfortable position.
• Check each armpit in turn.

To check the left side, lift your arm slightly then place the fingers of your right hand high into the armpit and then lower your arm.

• Feel in the central area of the armpit.

Now move your fingers firmly against the chest wall as follows: 

• Along the front border of the armpit. 
• Along the back border of the armpit. 
• Feel along the inner border of the arm. 
• Now check the other armpit.

How to Check Lymph Nodes in the Groin

Diagram of the lymph nodes in the groinThere are two areas to look for inguinal (groin) nodes:

• Feel the horizontal chain of nodes in the right groin just below the ligament (see above diagram).
• Feel the vertical chain along the upper thigh (see above diagram).
• Check the lymph nodes in the other groin.

Conclusion 

The purpose of this information is to help you understand why you have your nodes checked at your follow-up appointments. It explains which lymph nodes you need to check and how to undertake this procedure yourself. The aim is to ensure that if in the unlikely case there is spread of your skin cancer to the lymph nodes, it is detected and reported to your doctor or nurse straight away rather than waiting until your next clinic appointment.

Lymphatic System Anatomy–Lymphosurgery Center

The lymphatic system is an important part of the human cardiovascular system and complements it.

Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system does not have its own pump and is open. The lymph circulating in it moves slowly and under little pressure. Lymph is a fluid that is constantly formed by drainage of interstitial fluid into the lymphatic capillaries.

The structure of the lymphatic system includes:

• lymphatic capillaries
• lymphatic vessels
• lymph nodes
• lymphatic trunks and ducts

subclavian trunks; on the right into the right lymphatic duct, right jugular and right subclavian trunks. The ducts and trunks flow into the large veins of the neck, and then into the superior vena cava. In this way, lymph is transferred from the interstitial spaces back into the blood.

Lymphatic vessels pass through the lymph nodes. They are combined into several groups and are located along the vessels. Many afferent vessels carry lymph to the node, and it flows out from there only through one or two efferent vessels. Lymph nodes are small formations of a round, oval, bean-shaped, less often ribbon-shaped form up to 2 cm long. Here, lymph is filtered, foreign matter is separated and destroyed, and lymphocytes are produced here to fight infection. Lymph nodes that perform a barrier and immune role.

Main functions of the lymphatic system:

• Transport function – carrying lymph, metabolic products from tissues to the venous bed.

• Drainage function – the return of proteins, water, salts, toxins and metabolites from tissues to the blood. Removal of fluid, pus, effusion from the wound, cavities. Stability of the “capillary lymphatic pump”

• Lymphocytopoiesis, hematopoietic function – formation, maturation, differentiation of lymphocytes involved in immune reactions.

• Immune, protective functions – formation of the body’s immune defense, neutralization of foreign particles, bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa that enter the body. filtration from impurities, tumor particles and cells.

Any failure or blockage of the lymphatic vessels or nodes entails swelling or swelling of the tissues, lymphadenitis, erysipelas, lymphostasis occur. Experts, not without reason, believe that the lymph could tell about what the blood is “silent about”, because many of the waste products of the cells first enter the lymph, and then into the blood.

If most doctors can help us in the fight against many diseases, then only individual doctors – lymphologists – can diagnose and treat disorders in the lymphatic system.

According to the statistics of doctors themselves, in the CIS there are only a few lymphologists – specialists in the lymphatic system.

Lymphologists say: Your health is the purity of your lymphatic system!

Be healthy and happy!

Find out why women can develop swollen lymph nodes in the groin, what factors contribute to their appearance, what symptoms accompany this condition and what can be done to prevent its development.

Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women is a fairly common occurrence that can have multiple causes. However, the frequency of its occurrence is not the main indicator of the disease.

The lymphatic system plays an important role in protecting the human body by removing bacteria and viruses from tissues. The lymph nodes in the groin are part of this system and are responsible for cleaning the female organs, abdomen, lower body and extremities.

In this article, we will consider the causes of inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women, as well as the main symptoms of this disease, which will help to quickly detect it and begin timely treatment.

Article on the topic: “Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women: causes and symptoms”

Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin: causes

Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women can occur for many reasons. One of the main ones is an infectious disease, such as sexually transmitted diseases (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis), as well as infections of the genitourinary system (cystitis, pyelonephritis).

In addition, inflammation of the lymph nodes can be caused by the body’s reaction to a tumor or the release of malignant cells into the lymph nodes. It is also possible to react to the use of new hygiene products, preparations or specific clothing.

Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin: symptoms

Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women can have various symptoms. Most often, pain occurs in the groin, which can be very intense. There may also be swelling of the lymph nodes, redness of the skin, the surface of which becomes smoother and shiny.

Additional symptoms may include fever, headache, lethargy, fatigue. If you find these symptoms in yourself, do not delay a visit to the doctor, since it is important to establish the diagnosis of inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin as early as possible.

• Pain in the groin
• Swelling of the lymph nodes
• Redness of the skin
• Fever 9 0069
• Headache, lethargy, fatigue

Note: Diagnosis may be installed only by a qualified doctor after the necessary examinations and tests.

Causes of groin lymphadenitis

Infections

Infections are the most common cause of swollen lymph nodes in the groin in women. Such infections include genital infections, herpes simplex viruses, sexually transmitted diseases, and other urinary tract infections.

Injury

Also, an injury to the groin area can lead to inflammation of the lymph nodes in this area. Injuries can be either mechanical or chemical.

Weakened immunity

A weakened immune system can lead to inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin. The immune system can be weakened by stress, overwork, malnutrition, or by taking anti-inflammatory drugs.

Oncological diseases

In rare cases, inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin can be associated with tumors of the lymphatic system or other cancers.

Symptoms of inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women

Soreness and enlargement. Inflamed lymph nodes usually increase in size and become very painful to the touch. It is often difficult or even impossible for women to move, sit or even lie down.

Skin rashes. If swollen lymph nodes are close to the surface of the skin, women may notice redness, swelling or inflammatory skin rashes in the area of ​​the lymph nodes.

Weakness and fatigue. Inflammation of the lymph nodes can make women feel weak, tired and generally nervous. This is because inflammation is the body’s general response to infection or disease.

Pain in the pelvis or abdomen. Women with swollen lymph nodes in the groin may feel pain in the pelvis or abdomen. This may be because inflammation of the lymph nodes can cause irritation and pressure on nearby organs.

Fever and sweating. Inflammation of the lymph nodes can cause fever and excessive sweating in women. This is because the lymphatic system plays an important role in protecting the body from infection and disease.

Features of the diagnosis of lymphadenitis in the groin in women

Diagnosis of lymphadenitis in the groin in women requires an integrated approach and the use of various research methods. The initial stage is a general examination of the patient, including the collection of anamnesis and examination to determine the presence of tumors and enlarged lymph nodes.

To confirm the diagnosis of lymphadenitis, laboratory diagnostics are used, including a complete blood and urine test, bacteriological examination of smears and secretions, as well as a biopsy of the lymph nodes.

Specialists may also prescribe additional diagnostic tests such as ultrasound examination of the lymph nodes in the groin, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

The use of modern diagnostic methods allows determining the degree of inflammation of the lymph nodes, identifying the localization of their enlargement and establishing the nature of the disease – bacterial, viral or fungal.

Diagnostic method Advantages Disadvantages

Early diagnosis and treatment of lymphadenitis help to avoid the development of complications and the need for surgical intervention.

When should you see a doctor for inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women?

Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women can occur for many reasons, such as infections, allergic reactions, or cancer. When suppuration, discharge or large lymphadenopathy appear, it is imperative to consult an oncologist or specialist in infectious diseases.

If you have persistent pain in the groin, dysfunction of the lymphatic system, pain on palpation or changes in the size of the nodes, you should also immediately consult a specialist, since inflammation can be a symptom of serious illness.

Women should take into account that inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin may be associated with possible infectious diseases caused by intimate relationships. If there is such a risk, then you must first consult a venereologist, and then contact other medical specialists.

Treatment of swollen lymph nodes in the groin in women depends on the underlying cause. Regardless of what led to the inflammation of the lymph nodes, it is necessary to consult a doctor for examination and diagnosis, as well as for the appointment of the necessary treatment to overcome this problem.

Tests and examinations for inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women

When contacting a doctor with complaints of inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women, it is necessary to undergo a series of studies and pass tests. First of all, the doctor will prescribe a general blood test, which will allow you to assess the nature of changes in the state of the body. In addition, an analysis for HIV and syphilis may be prescribed, since these infections can be provoking factors for the development of inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin.

For a more accurate diagnosis, a lymph node biopsy may be performed. This will determine the nature of the inflammation and identify possible malignant tumors. An ultrasound of the pelvic organs may also be prescribed to detect pathological changes in the bladder or uterus.

All prescribed tests and studies will help determine the cause of inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women and make a verdict on the need for further treatment.

What else can cause painful swollen lymph nodes in the groin

In addition to infectious diseases, such as a violation of the microflora of the vagina, gynecological diseases can be a possible cause of enlarged lymph nodes in the groin. For example, a tumor in the uterus, fibromyoma, various neoplasms of the ovaries. It is also possible that the cause of the painful enlargement of the lymph nodes in the groin lies in an oncological disease.

However, do not panic if you find enlarged lymph nodes in the groin. It is better to consult a gynecologist to find out the cause of this phenomenon and prescribe appropriate treatment measures. If you had preventive examinations and consultations with a specialist, then the likelihood that the cause lies in an infectious disease is much higher.

1. Injuries – if you are injured in the thigh area, mechanical impact can lead to lymph nodes in the groin. Lymphadenitis may also occur if the integrity of the skin in the intimate area is violated.
2. Pregnancy and childbirth – swollen lymph nodes in the groin may be due to hormonal changes occurring in the body of a pregnant woman. This phenomenon is more relevant to the third trimester, when the child grows and puts pressure on the vessels and lymph nodes.
3. Allergic reactions – swollen lymph nodes in the groin may be a sign that you have been exposed to allergies or inflammation of the skin around this area.

Can inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin be contagious

Inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin in women is a fairly common phenomenon, often associated with infectious diseases of the genitourinary system or gynecological pathologies. Many women are interested in the question of whether it is possible to infect someone with inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin.

This type of inflammation is not contagious and is adopted only if there is an infection that causes inflammation of the lymph nodes. In this case, the cause of infection is the infection itself, and not the inflamed lymph node itself.

However, in the presence of inflammatory processes in the inguinal region, it is advisable to observe elementary hygiene measures, since the classical passage of lymph occurs from the bottom up. This means that the infection can spread to the upper lymph nodes, which can become inflamed and painful.

In general, the lymph nodes in the groin are the body’s first barrier to fighting infections, and if they become inflamed, a specialist should be consulted to determine the cause of the inflammation and appropriate treatment.

Possible complications of groin lymphadenitis in women

Although groin lymphadenitis in women is not a dangerous disease, its complications can be serious. For example, if treatment is not started quickly, the infection can spread to nearby organs and tissues, causing erosion, abscesses, and gangrene. In addition, complications can cause lymphostasis – difficult lymph flow from a diseased lymph node.

If the disease began to recur regularly, then chronic lymphadenitis may occur, which will lead to impaired blood circulation, and sometimes to the formation of fibrous tissue changes.

It is important to take into account that lymphadenitis in the groin in women can be a sign of another serious pathology of the body, such as tumors of the female genital organs, infections, HIV, etc. treatment, as well as to exclude possible complications in the future.
