Hello ladies,
I noticed today while preparing myself to go to work that I have a lymph
node in my grown. I also been suffering from hemorrhoid for the past two days.
Are these two things related? or can it be something more serious?
Has any of you experience any such things?
I also do not have any other symptoms,
Thank you so much in advance.

Unless you've an infection in the haemorrhoid, no they are not related & no that doesn't mean it's something more serious.

Have a chat with your GP to put your mind at rest, but generally our lymph glands flare up due to fighting a viral or bacterial infection. They tend to swell near the infection site, ie I've a neck gland up due to a grumbling tooth infection. In short it could be anything, maybe a gut infection or similar, but unlikely to be anything serious

Could it be a hernia- through straining with haemorrhoids?
A femoral hernia can be quite serious and so get advice today.
