 A swollen lymph node feels like a lump under the skin (can be pea/lima bean size or larger). Lymph nodes are located throughout your body but generally can be felt best in your groin area, neck and under your arms. They do not feel like a muscle spasm since they are more distinctive in location, size and feel to the touch. BB | ||||||||
