Teak and all

When a lymph node is swolling due to HIV is it in all 3 area? ie....Neck armpits and Groin?

The Reason i ask i have Lipoma in my inner thigh ( Lipomas are fatty deposits that are round and hard like marbles and sometimes bigger )

When i was examining my inner thighs just below my Balls the left side looks swollen, a little painful not when i touch them just when im sitting around. There lipomas there and there hard and it may be causing the swollen look. My right side has some as well but nothing like my lefy side.

Could it be swollen Lymph nodes, and would it just happen there and no where else? Is this area considered the groin?

I have an appoitment with my doctor on the 8th, but any help would definetly help.

Thanks

If one has swollen lymph nodes from ARS. You would have a lot more swollen lymph nodes all over your body. That would not be your only symptom. You won't be on this forum asking questions if you had ARS.

You didn't have a risk for HIV and you've been told that each time you've asked the same question. Keep your appointment with your doctor to see if you really have swollen lymph nodes and what the cause is because it has nothing to do with HIV.
