They don't produce anything. Lymph nodes take excess fluid out of your body, which are extracted from your lymph nodes and travel through your lymph vessels. Then, the body gets rid of this fluid. (you can just guess that part)

Lymph nodes can produce and contain lymph fluid, but they do not typically leak fluid. If a lymph node is damaged or infected, it may become enlarged or tender, but leakage of lymphatic fluid from a lymph node is not a common occurrence.

Lymph nodes filter lymph fluid to remove foreign particles, such as bacteria or viruses, and also produce immune cells to help fight infections. They contain a network of lymphocytes and macrophages that detect and respond to pathogens to prevent them from spreading throughout the body.
lymph nodes are made out of lymphoid tissuethat is able to receive the lymph and return cleaned lymph back into the circulation. Generally the cell types found in the lymph nodes are antigen-presenting cells (specifically dendritic cells), T cells (both helper CD4 T cells and killer CD8 T cells) and B cells (which produce antibodies).
The collection of stationary lymphatic tissue in the groin region is known as inguinal lymph nodes. These nodes help filter lymph fluid, trap and destroy pathogens, and produce lymphocytes to fight infections in the lower body. Swelling or tenderness in the inguinal lymph nodes may indicate localized infection or inflammation.
No, the lymphatic system is (to the best of current knowledge) strictly a transportation system for lymph that runs parallel to the cardiovascular system.
tiny vessels
The lymph nodes filter lymph.
The main function of lymph nodes is to act as a drainage system by absorbing and expelling proteins, dead cells, bacteria and other waste products from the body. Basically they clean and filter the lymph before it is returned to the blood.They are also a major part of the immune system, as they produce antibodies and lymphocytes.If there is an infection present in the body, the lymph nodes produce more lymphocytes to combat the infection. As they are very active at this stage, they may swell and become painful and hot...filter lymph
