Your nymph nodes are located next to your tonsils, in your groin, in your armpit, in your hypothalamus, and many other areas, though these are the main sites.
Lymph nodes are found all throughout the body, and act as filters or traps for foreign particles. Humans have approximately 500-600 lymph nodes distributed throughout the body, with clusters found in the underarms, groin, neck, chest, and abdomen.
