I have a swollen lymph node in my groin area. It is soft and mobile, ultrasound confirmed it's size 0,4 cm. Is this cancer?I know that in order to determine a cancerous lymph node a biopsy is needed. I want to know about the difference, soft or hard of size and shapes. agnarkb Wed, 15 Aug 2007 00:00:00 GMT
