Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Lymphadenitis is the medical term for enlargement in one or more lymph nodes, usually due to infection. Lymph nodes are filled with white blood cells that help your body fight infections. When lymph nodes become infected, it’s usually because an infection started somewhere else in your body.
Detailed explanation-2: -Someone with swollen lymph nodes has lymphadenopathy. Lymphadenopathy is not a disease or illness, but it may be a symptom. Lymphadenitis, by contrast, means that the lymph nodes have an infection requiring treatment. They are distinct conditions.
