I can feel a lymph node on right side of armpit much lower down. Doctor says this is under 1cm soft and rubbery. Does this sound like a normal lymph node?

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
