If you have a concern about your lymph nodes see your doctor. Only a doctor can diagnose swollen lymph nodes.

They feel like little peas or marbles.

If you press on them, you irritate the glands and they swell in response.

Only a dr can diagnose them, not you.

Swelling of lymph nodes due to viral infection causes huge lumps which doesn't need to be felt but can be easily seen most of the time.
