HIV most often affects lymph nodes around the neck area, as well as in the armpits and groin. Usually, healthy lymph nodes arenât visible. Once infected, they become swollen and may look like hard bumps about the size of beans. As the infection progresses, you may notice more lymph nodes swelling in your body.ymph nodes are located in certain parts of your body, including your neck, groin, and armpits. Theyâre shaped like beans and measure no more than 2.5 cm long. The lymph nodes are responsible for filtering lymph and producing mature immune cells.
The swollen lymph nodes are easy to see if they are near the surface of the body â for example, in the neck or under the arm. But if the nodes are deeper in the body, they can only be seen on a scan. Cancer in the lymph nodes may not cause any symptoms. But sometimes, the swollen lymph nodes can block the circulation of tissue fluid. This can cause swelling in the affected part of the body. For example, swollen lymph nodes in the armpit or groin can cause swelling in the arm or leg on the same side of the body.
