Getting an infection of any kind is never fun.
The nodes are clustered especially in the neck, armpits, groin, chest and abdomen (viaHealth).
The lymphatic system is an important part of the body’s immune system.
Lymph nodes store white blood cells the cells that attack and destroy invading pathogens, like bacteria and viruses.
This is common and not usually a cause for concern.
Often, swollen lymph nodes will go away on their own as the infection subsides.
