Hello I'm 22 and for about 9 + years I've had lymph nodes the size of peas in groin neck and armpit there's 8 total. They all move and kind of soft or rubbery. There's 3 in groin, 2 in same place on each side and one in each armpit. They have not changed size ever. The one in my left armpit is the only new one, it happen 9 months ago right after the first time I've ever shaved my armpit. It's 1.5 - 2 cm long not to thick I thibk , the biggest one I can move it anywhere and grab it with my fingers and roll it around. This got me worried because it's new, and showed up after I shaved. Been stressing about lymph nodes since then the others ones didn't bother me because I've had them forever . Any suggestion or help to calm me

None of them have changed size including new one. I also have a infected wisdom tooth for past year.

Heathly, gym everyday and no other symptoms

Hi there I have one Lymph Node in the back of my neck it is rock hard and doesn't move at all I have had it for 10 years maybe even all my life Im not too sure but its never done me any harm.
If yours move and havent changed sizes at all I wouldn't worry too much about them just dont prod them because I prodded one on my bikini line I got that from shaving too and it was immobile and hard i convinced myself it was cancer but I forced myself to leave it be and guess what....it dissappeared.
I honestly dont think you have alot to worry about theres plenty of people out there with "shotty" lymph nodes. I hope this helped in some way and I made sense, take care. :)

I'm still concerned, only with one the armpit one because it has just appeared 9 months ago in armpit after shaving and its 1.5 - 2 cms bigger then all other ones, it's very mobile I can pitch in fingers and move every where. It hasn't grown since I discovered it any ideas. I had the other 7 since as long as I can remember at least 8 years. Should I be worried about armpit

I have a swollwn lymph node gland on the back of my neck, do you have any underlying medical issues for example I have subacute discoid lupus and I found the lump on my neck when that started went to the doctors just a gland, if I catch a bug or anything it gets a bit bigger but goes down again as soon as I'm better.

No I feel perfectly healthy, I do have an infected wisdom tooth though not sure if that's the reason, I heard lymph nodes under 2 cms are normal
