Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped structures that play a crucial role in the body’s immune system. They filter lymph fluid, trapping bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances, which are then destroyed by immune cells. Lymph nodes also help produce and store lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that is essential for immune responses. By facilitating communication between different parts of the immune system, lymph nodes are vital for responding effectively to infections and diseases.
