Armpit and neck lymph nodes

Are moveable lymph nodes in the armpit and neck a normal finding without being classed as enlarged? Just because I can feel them doesn’t mean they are enlarged so they?

Lymph nodes are generally considered to be normal if they are up to 1 cm in diameter. The body has approximately 600 lymph nodes, but only those in the submandibular, axillary or inguinal regions may normally be palpable in healthy people. Your condition sounds like a normal lymph node
