This is not actually a raised gland but is due to enlargement of the lymph nodes of the neck as a result of the immune system reacting to facilitate the immune response to the infection. • Lymph nodes are exactly that, nodes on the network of the lymphatic system that allows the main immune system to react and to focus resources where they are needed within the body. • This lymphoreticular examination covers lymph nodes in the following regions: • Submental • Submandibular • Parotid and tonsilar • Pre-and post auricular • Deep, superficial and posterior cervical chains • Occipital • Supraclavicular • Axillary • Epitrochlear nodes • ----------- • Please note that there is no ABSOLUTE way to perform a clinical examination.
