AI overview

Lymph nodes are small organs that are part of your body's lymphatic system, which works alongside your immune system to filter fluid and fight infections. They contain immune cells that help identify and destroy harmful invaders like bacteria and viruses, which is why they often swell when you're sick as your body battles an infection.
