Pain in the lymph nodes

Pain in the lymph nodes is an uncomfortable sensation that can range from mild to severe. It may be localized to one area or widespread. It can be accompanied by swelling and tenderness. The pain may become worse when the area is touched or moved. It can develop gradually over time, or it can appear suddenly. It may be associated with an infection, inflammation, or cancer. It is important to seek medical attention if pain in the lymph nodes persists.
