Lymph node degeneration

In people's lives, people often suffer from colds or other infections, and there can be nodules like glass bulbs in the neck, behind the ears, under the axilla, or in the groin, localized swelling and tenderness, which is hard, which is called lymphadenitis. Lymphadenitis caused by bacteria invading lymph nodes along the lymphatic vessels. But not everyone will develop lymphadenitis when they encounter a bacterial infection. This disease is prone to occur only when the body's resistance decreases. When long-term malnutrition, anemia and other chronic diseases reduce the resistance significantly, lymphadenitis is prone to occur after infection with bacteria. The bacteria that cause this disease are often Staphylococcus aureus and hemolytic streptococcus.
