I'm 33 healthy female. I have a swollen lymph node on one side of my groin about an inch in size. It is firm, soft but is not painful. I've had it a little over a month and about a week ago I got another smaller one right above it that is swollen. Any suggestions on the cause?

It could very well be nothing,but it could also be lymphoma. I work in oncology, and we often have patients come in who have enlarged lymph nodes for some other reason than cancer. We also have many come in who discover enlarged lymph nodes and find out they have cancer. My best advice is to get this checked out ASAP. Its likely to be nothing, but if it is something, you need to know now.

Hodgkins lymphoma, most likely, but you really need to get diagnosed by an oncologist.
In 1990, I had Hodgkin's Lymphoma, stage 3-B, but I've survived. During the year in treatment, I started learning about alternative medicine.

Here's what I've figured out--FIRST, somebody--probably from the AMA--is getting my answers deleted as 'not a question or an answer', because they don't want you to know about it. So if you want to keep this information, you need to copy it to a wordpad document quickly, before it disappears. Hopefully, they'll give up and stop that nonsense soon. Now, here goes--

Cancer is caused by poor nutrition (including oxygen) and stressors. Stressors can be environmental, like heavy metals, food additives or pollution, or emotional or job stress.
Our bodies have 60 trillion--yes, trillion--cells, and there are always some mutating into cancer cells, but a healthy immune system kills them before they have a chance to get a foothold in the body.
It takes a LONG time, usually, or an exrtaordinary amount of stressors, to degrade the immune system to the point where it won't do its job, but once cancer has formed, it can spread rapidly.


THIS IS IMPORTANT! There are ways to BEAT cancer that the AMA is keeping from the American public, that are being used in Europe and around the world. Here is some information that is getting hard to find--

"The Cure for All Cancers", ISBN 0963632825;
"A Cancer Therapy", ISBN 0882681052;
"Hydrogen Peroxide--Medical Miracle", ISBN 1885236077;
"The Natural Cure for Cancer--Germanium", ISBN 0533071410;
"Killing Cancer", ISBN 0705000966.


Type 'used books' into your browser and find a good site, then type in the ISBN numbers and get some great help cheap.

I know of people whose cancer has 'spontaneously remitted' (WENT AWAY for no known reason) after they went on a program of herbs and nutrition.

The American Medical Association (AMA) and the pharmaceutical companies control medical law in this country, and they are in it for the money, and don't care about individuals. You and your family must look out for yourselves to stand a chance of being healthy.

This is not a joke, and I'm not selling anything. Look into it. Best of luck

SEE A DOCTOR. We can't tell you that in here. Hopefully, it is nothing serious, but you need to know for sure. If it's something bad, you will need treatment ASAP. And, don't worry, there are good treatments out there. Have you had any other symptoms? Itching? Night Sweats? Check this site for info on Lymphoma, and to see if you have any other symptoms.

Keep a journal of your observations and take that with you to the doctor.
Best wishes
