At this time, you should go to the hospital for examination in time to prevent more serious consequences. So what are the symptoms of inguinal lymphadenitis?

The inguinal lymph nodes are superficial and deep lymph nodes located in the left and right groin, and are divided into two groups: superficial and deep. Drains lymph from the lower limbs, lower abdominal wall and perineum.

Lymph node enlargement is very common and can occur in people of any age. It can be seen in a variety of diseases, both benign and malignant. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to the cause of lymph node enlargement and seek medical treatment and diagnosis in time to avoid misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.

Superficial lymph nodes: mandibular lymph nodes; parotid lymph nodes; superficial cervical lymph nodes, subclavian lymph nodes and superficial inguinal lymph nodes.

Among them, the superficial inguinal lymph nodes are located on the abdominal lamina in front of the external ring of the inguinal canal, on both sides of the penis, called scrotal lymph nodes; located subcutaneously on the outside of the breast base, called mammary lymph nodes, draining lymph from the side and bottom walls of the abdominal cavity, the inner skin of the thigh, penis, foreskin, scrotum and breast.

Deep lymph nodes: retropharyngeal lymph nodes, deep cervical lymph nodes, bronchial lymph nodes, mediastinal lymph nodes, dorsal thoracic lymph nodes, sternal lymph nodes, gastric lymph nodes, hepatic lymph nodes, splenic lymph nodes, omental lymph nodes, jejunal lymph nodes, colon lymph nodes, cecal lymph nodes, small colon lymph nodes, internal lymph nodes and inguinal lymph nodes.

Among them, the deep inguinal lymph nodes are a large lymph node cluster, only found in equine animals, about 8 to 12 cm long, containing 16 to 35 lymph nodes, located in the upper part of the femoral canal, on the inner surface of the femoral artery and vein, and record the lymph of the pelvic and hind limb muscles, and abdominal wall muscles.

The superficial inguinal lymph nodes collect lymph fluid from the lower extremities, perineum, external genitalia, buttocks, and the area below the navel on the anterior abdominal wall. Its efferent duct drains into the extracondylar lymph nodes.

The superficial inguinal lymph nodes collect lymph from the superficial structures of the entire lower limb except the lateral edge of the foot and the side of the calf.

There are about 600 to 700 lymph nodes in the human body, and clinically only various superficial lymph nodes of the body can be examined. The superficial lymph nodes of healthy people are very small, with a diameter of no more than 1 cm. They are soft in texture, smooth in surface, difficult to touch, and have no tenderness and adhesion to adjacent tissues.
