Are enlarged abdominal lymph nodes the cause of abdominal pain?
Enlarged lymph nodes are a symptom of an underlying health problem. Lymph nodes usually only swell when there is extra activity going on with them or they are congested. When lymph nodes swell, they can become tender to the touch but it is unusual that they alone can be the cause of abdominal pain. It seems that there is an underlying problem. When an infection is present, lymph nodes swell due to lymphocytes (white blood cells) rushing into the nodes to help fight the infection. The answer to your question in my opinion would be no. The cause of your abdominal pain may be linked with enlarged abdominal lymph nodes but they are not the cause of problem. There may be an infection present, you may have had a poor diet and created a bacteria filled environment, your body may be fighting a more serious ailment. The best course of action would be to eat a VERY healthy diet, one which promotes good health and cleansing, take a visit to your doctor to check for any underlying health problems (note that swollen lymph nodes are not the problem, they are a symptom) and in general take very good care of your body.

Why are lymph nodes removed in cancer treatments?
Removal of Lymph NodesThe lymph nodes are a way of travel for breast cancer cells. This is the first place they go if the cancer has spread. They remove the lymph nodes to see if the cancer has spread. Hopefully, the breast cancer cells will not have gone past the lymph nodes, and with removal of them and the cancer in the breast, the cancer is gone. Unfortunately, this is not always the case, and the cancer can spread to other parts of the body through the lymph nodes. The more lymph nodes that are positive for cancer, the more likely the cancer has spread to distant places in the body. Early detection is the key! Keep up on the mammograms and self examination. It could save your life!AnswerThe above poster gave an excellent answer, but just wanted to add that lymph nodes are throughout our body and are filters for our body, thus, of there are cancer cells they can travel through lymph nodes.
