lymph nodes

by CareAnnNurse, Jan 30, 2008 02:57PM
My daughter is 7 years old; she has one enlarged lymph node under each arm pit about the size of my fingertip, two in her neck one finger tip size one is the length of about a fingertip and a half; she a six in her groin area; all about the siz of an adult fingertip; no fever; this has been going on since October; she is always tired and itchy; her pediatrician checked her for viruses and said all of her blood work looked okay excep her monocytes were slightly elevated

Conclusion: shoddy lymph nodes

Is it common for children to have that many lymph nodes out for this long?
