where are lymph nodes concentrated in the body?
near and within the trunk
lymph nodes are present throughout the body, are more concentrated near and within the trunk, and are divided in the study of anatomy into groups. some lymph nodes can be felt when enlarged (and occasionally when not), such as the axillary lymph nodes under the arm, the cervical lymph nodes of the head and neck and the inguinal lymph nodes near the groin crease. some lymph nodes can be seen, such as the tonsils. most lymph nodes however lie within the trunk adjacent to other major structures in the body - such as the paraaortic lymph nodes and the tracheobronchial lymph nodes.
