Hello doctor. Let me ask you, I have a nodule in the groin on the left side, 2cm from the big lip and slightly down to the anus. This node has also been present for some time and this node is as small as a normal benign node. When my body is hot like the skin on my back and neck has acne, this lymph node is a little bigger but not painful. After the skin and back acne subsided, the lymph nodes were small as a benign state. So, please ask the doctor if there is no pain in the pelvic lymph nodes, is it okay? How to distinguish benign and malignant lymph nodes? Thanks for the advice doctor.

Answer
Hello,
You have a lump in the vulva area, besides the lymph nodes, there are many other causes such as fatty tumors, sebaceous tumors,....And the lymph nodes also have benign inflammatory nodes. There are also lymph nodes due to cancer metastases,... The symptoms you describe are not enough to conclude the cause of lymphadenopathy? And what's wrong with swollen lymph nodes in the vagina without pain? Therefore, you should go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for an examination and an accurate diagnosis.
If you still have questions about how to distinguish between benign and malignant lymph nodes, you can go to specialized medical facilities or hospitals of Vinmec Health System to be examined and given more specific advice by a doctor. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
