- Swollen lymph nodes
Enlarged lymph nodes indicate changes in the lymphatic system, which can be a sign of cancer. Lumps on the neck, underarm or groin can be an early sign of leukemia, while a swollen lymph node under the arm is sometimes a sign of breast cancer. Lumps in the lymph system are an indication that the body is fighting an infection. If you have a symptom, don’t assume it is cancer – worry is never worth it, instead, get it checked out.
