Hey, lymph node is not a disease so how can it have symptoms?
A lymph node is a small ball or oval shaped organ of the immune system. Lymph nodes are found all through the body, and act as filters or traps for foreign particles.
Lymph nodes also have clinical significance. They become inflamed or enlarged in various conditions, which may range from trivial, such as a throat infection, to life-threatening such as cancers.
Is this what you meant when you asked 'symptoms'?
ya u r ryt but y it swells somestimes bcoz pesently i m suffered from it...i got it since last 4 months but still i m not escapig
It most probably means you have some kind of infection. Better consult a doctor immediately.
I found this on wikipedia - they swell only for some particular diseases.
OK, so have you had any disease that you could easily identify?
