Is it normal for you to be able to feel your lymph nodes?

After obsessing over my lymph nodes for 3 months and seeing 3 different doctors I still haven't got an answer for this, everyone seems to be so unsure!

I can feel my lymph nodes in my groin, armpits, neck and under jaw, some are as big as about 2cm.

They haven't got any bigger for 3 months now, and I have no other symptoms which would suggest cancer, does that mean I can rule that out as a possibility?

Should I see another doctor? I have no idea what to do. But it's really starting to f me off because the doctor's don't even know what's caused them to be palpable.

Cheers.

PS don't answer the poll as Yes if you know it's because you've had an infection very recently (<2weeks ago)

I have this lump in my groin that has appeared from nowhere. Have no idea what it is so i'm guessing it's a lymph node. It's about the size of a small pea.

Can you feel any in the back of your neck, maybe slightly to the side from the central back of your neck, if you feel carefully? Or deep under your armpits?
