question about gland
Subject: question about gland
This is a personal question. I just took my 12yr old to the doctor because she has a bulging knot in the crease of her thigh just to the right of her vagina. The doc said it was a swollen gland and put her on antibiotics. I have been reseaching glands and was wondering if this particular gland had a name. The doc talked like this could be serious, but maybe not. I was in shock and did not ask the right questions. Does anyone have any idea. I know this is a site for workers (it has always been a help to me), but I am at a loss. Thanks
