What Is The Color Of A Normal, Healthy Lymph Node? What Does It Mean If Some Lymph Nodes Are Dark In Color?
I have some swollen lymph nodes and some are painful. I recently had a biopsy done of the swollen lymph nodes in my groin area; the doctor mentioned some of the lymph nodes were slightly darkened. What does this mean?

The lymph nodes are small swellings of lymphatic system and contains lymph. The color of a normal healthy lymph node is whitish/yellow. The lymph nodes swell due to infection or cancer. You have gone for the biopsy of lymph node because doctor wanted to differentiate a cancerous and non cancerous lymph node. Slightly dark color might be due to abnormal growth, but wait for the biopsy report.
